Hello,
I am new to flow/Automate. I have an excel file that contains list of users and columns about user's info. whenever excel file is updated, I want to update respective user in dynamics 365. I have been successful in updating all text fields but when I try to update a field which is type 'lookup' then it does not get updated.
steps I have taken in my flow -
1) list rows from excel table 2) get records from Dynamics 365 3) list records for match 4) update dynamics 365 records for specific fields.
I am struggling to update the lookup field for users 'site'. Any help or guidance on this will be great!

I have made some progress on this hurdle but not completely through yet. I found the GUID of site records in CE and replaced Site names with GUID on excel file site column. after doing this the flow successfully updated the lookup field.
I would still appreciate if someone can help with how to dynamically match a record via its GUID and update it. I am thinking that I need to use some expression and/or also get the data from related to entity before Update action but that's all Pie in the sky so far.
