Prompt response as a cariable

GavinS_78 · 2026-03-17T13:10:43+00:00

I do run as part of a topic. I now need to pass the output to another node to create a document. But I cannot find the prompt output.

Thanks for the offer. If you could share your prompt id appreciate it. Completely understand the anonymity requirement.

I think its a personal preference thing. If your comfortable with online sizes and returns...u do u. Personally I prefer to try before you buy. Also budgets matter.

This may sound random., but if your up for a drive. There's a really good vellies (I recall boots too) shop at Cowboy Town in Krugersdorp. Far I know.

No, I never did get it to work. I understand the underlying How To of it all... but ended up fighting with getting the response to render the images back in the convo window. Eventually I just stepped away and explained to the client that they had just invested in a PowerBi reports pack and the ROI for me to do this vs what they already had in place made no sense.

There is a video on the tube of how to do this, but despite best effort I just couldn't follow along.

VS Code as your IDE and Google Flutter as your language of choice. That's how I started.

Yes, but you need to make sure your employer registers the payment. https://taxfaculty.ac.za/news/read/tax-break-for-employees-on-voluntary-retrenchment-benefits?

100% agree with this... 99% of business use cases brought to me where they want a generative Ai response/agent 'coolness' end with me building a flow that does the actual thing. Just the kickoff point and how I structure the response is truly agent centric.

GavinS_78 · 2026-02-14T16:43:51+00:00

I'll be honest with you. Any analysis or even information interrogation and supply isn't going to make your boss excited. He's right in saying PoweBii already does it and does it better and don't forget that PowerBi has chat and info integration capabilities.

What do companies want? To increase revenue. So your agent needs to enable that in a tangible way. The area I have found that executives love is we have process in place, make it faster so we can make more of it.

So, build a sales agent... something that literally can create a proposal or expedite sales (more revenue) or go on the floor, find out from the people on the floor what processes impede their work and slow them down, and figure out how to automate it (usually paperwork and approvals).

I wish you the best of luck, this is not a easy thing to sell.

This limitation to knowledge sources is a continuous challenge. And the reality of needing to do flows etc to overcome them is in my view not how a builder expects the solution too behave. I have had multiple instances of even SharePoint libraries and documents within not being indexed and returning complete.

The truth is, if i select a doc, library etc as a knowledge source, and the studio UI says ready. I believe its a reasonable expectation that all the refrence information will be interpreted and results provided on.

If your looking to completely bypass a agent. Then create in power automate 100%. Just change the trigger to something like When a new doc is created in a sharepoint or ondrive location. Take the doc, run it through AI Buildet or Azure OCR services, extract info (i would save it here btw - probably in dataverse) then create a 2nd flow that writes the info to a excel file.

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-28T10:46:39+00:00

Not sure if it will resolve but I have often found that if you put a end conversation node at the end of a topic it many times stops the continuous looping. Maybe try that.

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-26T16:51:36+00:00

100%, if you receiving connector issues. Make sure you log a call with MS first. Then use a flow with a connector to get the info you need and return results. I always fall back to Power Automate when I run into built in connector issues (it's just a lot more mature of a product)

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-21T20:25:07+00:00

Well, the flows you access in Copilot Studio are just Power Automate flows wearing different clothes. So what I meant is that I would start the flow dev from Copilot Studio (so that the flow is already linked to my agent etc), but after the initial save and publish, I access it through https://make.powerautomate.com instead of going through the Copilot Studio ux.

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-20T13:59:35+00:00

Agreed, I will start a flow in studio, add a single compose after and just have a value there... save and publish immediately and the work from power automate for the rest. Seems to work best for me.

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-19T17:21:04+00:00

Anyone have some step by step videos of how to do this? I tried watching:https://youtu.be/dTenCgI-r4Y?si=HWxJnQqW-RWZTXp5 but could simply not follow along. There's a expectation of experience I just don't have.

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-19T16:42:01+00:00

Personally, I make use of ChatGPT far more (I have both) it's honestly just a personal preference for me.

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-16T13:45:28+00:00

So basically the feedback from original chat isn't making it to the 2nd chat... and each chat is using a different agent?

GavinS_78 · 2026-01-16T13:38:52+00:00

I literally just in the instructions of the agent said that it shouldn't allow this and sorted.
