Update an item of a list based on the input of another list

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi guys, 

 

I'm currently trying to build a flow to modify a list's record based on another list's input, so now I have two lists (list A and list B) and they have identical column fields. List A stores all applications comes from a PowerApps like below:

Through a flow, after approval, "New Application" from List A would be added to the List B.
"Delete Record" from List A would be took as a reference to update some existing records in List B accordingly.

My question is how could the flow update  "ApplicationType" of a certain record in List B if there's "Delete Record" entry in List A?

 

Currently my attempt is like below, the flow can run successfully and get correct item but it does not help in updating a certain record:

get items from List B (satisfies the filter query) -> set condition -> update item if conditions are satisfied:

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    It seems that the output of your 'Get Items' action is empty.

    Please check the parameter of 'filter quey'.

     

    Best Regards,

    HI @v-xiaochen-msft, thanks for your response, the "Get Items" works well, it turns out issue occurs in "Condition 3", after revised the condition, now the flow works as expected.
