Changing the value of a record in dynamics by parsing text

[Edsicle]

Hello,

I am new to power automate and a task I undertook seemed easy at first since I know how to do it in JavaScript but I cannot seem to figure it out with a flow. I have a table in MS Dynamics that gets populated with partially the wrong information from a different team. I need to edit that information to remove certain text from the string and replace it with different text. I got as far as triggering the Flow on create and then finding where in the string the text is but I am very confused at how to use variables in Power Automate, it's not at all what I'm used to. So in short, I need to change a substring in a text field to a different substring on create. Any advice or direction to documentation would be helpful, Thanks!

Hi @Edsicle 

After the trigger add a compose action step. Then map the dynamic property value from your trigger step which you want to replace. Next add another compose action step. Click the expression tab and type replace() expression. Set the above output compose and replace string details. Next step update row using the above id and map the output from the previous expression step compose where you set the replace().

Thanks
