    MS Flow cannot copy table to a new worksheet table

    Hi,

    I am trying to copy a table from one worksheet to a separate 365 worksheet using Flow but I am really struggling. I can easily extract the rows (cannot delete the rows in the primary worksheet as I also need them there), and then place them into the new worksheet table but each time the flow runs it then duplicates the rows in the new worksheets table.

    So, I either need to be able to have a flow that simply copies the table from worksheet to worksheet overwriting whatever is there currently or, an automated formula to remove the oldest duplicate (if present) from the second worksheet.

    My current flow is setup as follows:

    1 - Run every 1 hour
    2 - List rows present in a table (see picture attached[List Row])
    3 - Apply row to a table (see picture attached [Apply to Each])

    This results in the row being duplicated on each run. See attached [Primary Table] - Source of the data & [Secondary Table] - the destination of data where duplication happens each Flow run.

    Slightly confused... so any help much appreciated or i anyone knows of a similar place for MS Flow questions.

    TIA

    I think you might need to give some detail about how you are setting up the flow.

    It has never been locked.

    103 views and no responses - I did think it was a bit niche, and as I thought, not many people here (if any) seem to have enough experience of MS Flow to help you out. Sorry about that.
