Update changes between two SharePoint List
Mihiranp you will need to build a flow in Power Automate.
These are the 2 SharePoint lists.
The flow is as follows:
If one of those 3 columns has changed then get all the items from the CustomerInfo list. If it was a different column that changed then do nothing.
Condition 2 below looks at whether the Title column from the get items action is equal to the CustomerEmail column in the CustomerTickets list. If it is set the boolean variable created earlier to the expression true.
Outside the apply to each add another condition to check if the variable is true. If it is, update the item in the CustomerInfo list, if not create a new item.
In the CustomerTickets list I changed the Isalnd to Guadalupe, the flow then ran and the Island in CustomerInfo was updated to Guadalupe.
I would then have a second flow with the when an item is created trigger. Otherwise you have to add more actions (and complexity) to this flow to avoid the never-ending loop where an item is constantly updated.

Hi,
When updating an item in the main list, a new item is created successfully in the second list if it doesn't already exist. However, if the item already exists in the second list, a new item is created instead of updating the existing item
