Form that submits a sharepoint list and email with link to a secondary form to update the list item.
- Oct 13, 2023
edesposito the only way to link up the second form to the original list item is to ask the user to enter the ID number created when the first form is saved into SharePoint, and you'd need to add that ID into the email. Then use the SharePoint update item action in a second flow to update the item with the resolution details.

Seems like a reasonable ask. A update rather than a create command is important information, thanks for including that. I know the step needs to come after the list is generated and before or during the email step. How do I call that ID and push it to the email?
I have also been looking another approach. Putting the list in a location I feel good about giving access and giving it a json customization making it more approachable. Is their a way I can create a link directly to the list item in that email? Again, I probably need to now how to get the automation to pull the ID generated from the earlier step so it can be put into a url.
I am not asking to be spoon fed code. I am fine if you send me links to existing pages. Just having difficulty finding the right reference material to do it myself.
