Hello @abuxbaum107 ,
In that case you will have to use an additional action called "Get file metadata using path", and pass the file path which you will get from Dynamic Content of the Trigger. This action will return ItemID which you can then pass to the Get file properties action to get all the File Properties you need. Please see the screenshot below for reference
Let me know how it goes.
Hello @abuxbaum107 ,
Can you share a screenshot of what you are doing currently in the Flow?
If I understand correctly, you are trying to record the Author of the File in the Excel Table and finding it difficult to extract it. You can find the 'Created By' which is an object and expands to give you the Account's info about who created the File from Dynamic Content and should be able to use it in any expression.
Have you tried to limit the Columns in the Trigger with Views by any chance? If you have it maybe possible that Created By is not one of the columns added to your View and thus you are not able to see it in the Dynamic Content.
Please give a Kudo or Mark this Reply as a Solution if it resolved your problem. Thanks!
Thank you for your help! See my flow below. The flow runs and all the fields get updated (that have dynamic/static content in them) in Excel except the 'Nominator' column. I pulled the Author display content from another flow, as it does not show up as an option in this flow. Also, I don't think i have limited columns by view but I have not able to confirm that. Any other thoughts would be helpful!
