How to get dynamically excel table names from PowerApps to SharePoint document library using flow?

[Dhinesh28R]

Hi all,

What i need is need to do a bulk updates from Excel to SharePoint Document Library. At that same time i need to validate a SharePoint List for an already list having a same data or not. If it is empty i need to create a new row or else i need to do an update on a existing SharePoint list row.

But i couldn't get a Table name from excel file through update from a PowerApps.

Is it possible to get table name from excel file while we dynamically upload an excel file? This is what i need to know.

Thanks,

Dhinesh

Hi @Dhinesh28R 

There is an action to get table names, returns an array of all table names, you can use first() to rerun the only table name if you are confident with expressions, otherwise it will insert you into an apply to each.

Hi @Dhinesh28R ,

Have you solved this problem? As @DamoBird365  mentioned there is an action for your scenario. I made a simple flow for demonstration:

But the question is, will you update multiple tables from your Power App? If you have only one table that update from Power App, you should directly use this table to validate with your SP list or update/create items in it, trigger the flow from the Power App, which means you will need to combine the flow you are designing with the old one.

Hope this helps.
