Get the text value of lookup column in Dynamics

[Zgolbarg]

Hi,

I am building a flow that whenever a new record is added/ updated to Dynamic's account table, the new record is added/updated to the Sharepoint list as well.

In the Account table, I Have 2 look-up fields. one is a lookup in the Account table and the other one is a lookup in the User table.

I have 2 question:

can I have one flow for both add and update records?

I need the text value of those lookup fields instead of GUID. which action is needed for each of them?

i used this action:

I also saw this one but I don't have the create option :

I am new in flow and appreciate your help

Hi @Zgolbarg,

In your second screenshot the Added is the same as Created. And Modified means the same as Updated.

So, if you want to use the When a row is added, modified or deleted action you could set the change type to Added or Modified.

With that change type you will trigger the flow whenever a new record is created or when an existing one is updated in one flow.

Thanks for your reply.

when I choose the second picture I am not able to see all the fields in my account table to match with the Sharepoint list

Hi @Zgolbarg :

If you need to get the text in the lookup field, then you need to use the GUID returned by it to find the corresponding record in the corresponding table.

For example,I there is a table "1" and there is a lookup column named 'CreatedBy' in table '1'.

I assume I want to get who create the record when a new record is created in '1':

The Result:
