Hi,

I have built an app that takes entries from users where it captures date, update on actions (text), update types (Check boxes) and a few combo box linked text data and saves this to a SharePoint list.

I have built a view using gallery where the users can see the entries submitted by them and their peers, however, limited to their manager in common. I am using filters, sortbycolumns and multiple IFs (I am providing filters on the gallery screen) to allow users to filter based on combo box selections in the 4 filters I am using.

What I need help with is the Export button to publish the filtered data from gallery into a csv file. I tried using the below syntax but it does not allow users to append the data in the Export.csv that is on my OneDrive for Business. I have linked the Export.csv with edit access for entire organization too. For some users, only the headers of the table is updated while the actual data for entries is either blank or the first entry is repeated. Also at times, users can download my last patched data (again the 1st entry is fine for me, but the new entries are repeat of the first row)

Syntax for Export Button -

Clear(ExportCSVCol);
ForAll(ExportGal.AllItems As GalData,
Collect(ExportCSVCol,
{'1. Date':Date_Gal.Text,'2. Heading':Head_Gal.Text,'3. Description':Des_Gal.Text}
)
);
Set(_JSONFile,JSON(ExportCSVCol));
Set(SuccessVAR,ExportCSVFlow.Run(_JSONFile).completed);
If(SuccessVAR="true",Launch("https://orgmy.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/orgaddress/link?e=bgGFnm&Download=1"))

What am I doing wrong or missing here?

A couple things.

1. I would go to the Flow (which isn't shared), in an instance where the person didn't get the correct data and review what data actually was sent to the flow.

2. If the data was correct, then you know your bug is in the Flow

3. If the data is NOT correct, then you know either you have a bug creating the data

4. Why are you using ExportGal.Allitems as GalData? But you aren't using GalData anywhere.

- While this isn't required in all cases.

I would update it to just be

ForAll(ExportGal.AllItems,
    Collect(ExportCSVCol,
   {
       Date': ThisRecord.Date_Gal.Text,'
       Heading': ThisRecord.Head_Gal.Text,
       Description': ThisRecord.Des_Gal.Text
    }
  );
);

Please share the input and outputs of a flow instance that produced wrong data.

It's possible that if you are using a Single Template file, that it could also be getting locked if multiple people are doing things or the flow or app has it locked.

Just a suggestion, but please try what i have above and also please share more details.

P.S. For users that have issues, do they always have issues? So if you have a single person who can repro it all the time it would be super easy to fix.
