Add date completed when status is changed
Ejgp_72 What piece you didn't understand in the update item action?
Values for ID and Title properties are coming from the trigger outputs (when an item or file is modified).
And for Completed date column, RobElliott is passing the utcNow() via flow expression (by clicking Add dynamic content option you see in the images). utcNow() function returns the current date and timestamp.

Good day
I am trying to update "Assigned coaching date" with current date when "Coaching status" column have been changed.
I was following the flow https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sharepoint/add-date-completed-when-status-is-changed/m-p/2636031 and once I started testing it, it removes information from email "title column"
Here is my flow:
Would you know why this flow would be deleting information from another column? "Email title" in my case.
Thank you.
Di.

DianaGuseva I don't see "Email title" in your update item action. Are you talking about "Title" column?
If column is not required/mandatory in the SharePoint list, you don't need to pass any value to that column from update item action - you can keep the blank value.
If the column is required/mandatory in the SharePoint list, you can pass the same column value you get from trigger outputs to that particular column - you can set it with the help of "dynamic content" section.
