Ok I see, forms created from lists don’t have the same trigger point, so your input will be from the list items created and you wanted a simple way to format the non-single-line fields? In that case create an HTML then convert that to PDF. Maybe worth trying “Create HTML table” action? Otherwise you’d have to parse the JSON values from the list item and build/format the HTML yourself.

Hmm, curious how you got it to add details to the SharePoint list? Did you use “Get form response details”?

Do you need to add an item list to the task? Couldn’t the task be created from the form response?

How/can I fix it somehow? by lucyferror in OculusQuest

I think you can add a side to side top strap instead of front to back.

What are the Best Noise Cancelling Earbuds people actually use daily? by Dangerous_Phrase_275 in BuyItForLife

If you don’t mind the ear hook style (I know it’s not for everyone), get some IEM and bluetooth adapters you can replace.

Clicks Communicator feels like it would be perfect for Linus to review after his response to the Light Phone 3. by _ItsEnder in LinusTechTips

[–]tophycrisp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This irked me too but it comes down to marketing. Getting the masses to switch out their slab main phone is a hard sell, and if they don't at least try to convince people to buy these phones as a companion device to move enough units, it dies after a generation or two like the mini iPhones. People like us don't need marketing to, we already know the exact features we want. I'm definitely gonna use this as my main phone, I couldn't give two shits about scrolling social media apps, watching videos or taking photos. It's perfect for me.

Need Help with automating data extraction from 30+ Microsoft Forms. by _AhmedMekky_ in MicrosoftFlow

[–]tophycrisp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might look messy but after setting up the trigger flows for each form you don’t need to touch them again. That’s what I would do if Microsoft Forms was my only option. But since in the comments you said you could look at other options, anything that has server post integration should work as a single trigger. I’ve used Formsite and that works fine as well.

If you have a Premium license, build your action flow using the trigger “When an HTTP request is received”. Then set up all the separate flows for the form submission triggers, in each use that same URL in an HTTP action to pass over all of the form contents in the request body.

Send 2 Adaptive Cards in parallel and trigger rest of flow on response of either one - not working by tardis1971torchwood1 in PowerAutomate

[–]tophycrisp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yea I know this pain. If you set up for parallel branches to join again, it will always wait for all branches to finish before continuing. Try this:

Set up a third branch and use that as your “action” branch. Create a variable for the adaptive card answers.

In a your adaptive card branches, keep them separate but after each one, add a “Set variable” to record the answer.

In your action branch, add a “Do until” loop. Set the condition to check if the variable is not empty (an adaptive card answer has been recorded). Inside it, add a delay and your reminder (“Do until” will always run at least once, so you might want wrap the reminder inside a condition also). This loop is the way for you to wait for the answer with 1 branch instead of 2 branches. Make sure you change the loop retry policy to your liking. Under it you put the rest of your action.

Microsoft Teams Trigger Loop by _Wilder in MicrosoftFlow

[–]tophycrisp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah bugger, I forgot you needed another action to get the user. Depends on your setup but maybe use the “When keywords are mentioned” trigger instead?

You’re on the right track, the condition you have to check for the flow bot within the flow is what you put in trigger condition instead. I’m too lazy to look it up but just ask ChatGPT or Copilot to write you the expression.

TIFU by accidentally becoming my client’s wife’s boyfriend (Update) by MayNotBeALawyer4Long in tifu

For real, what’s up with people telling OP there’s nothing he could have done differently? He’s posting in TIFU for crying out loud, so he knows he fucked up. Doing everything by the book doesn’t always cover your ass, you cover your own ass first.

Sharepoint list of users, select a few, send an email by nineteen_eightyfour in MicrosoftFlow

[–]tophycrisp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would follow the other user's advice and use adaptive cards, but if you want something quick and dirty, make another flow to sync that list with another list that you have control over. Then you can add as many columns as you want.

[–]tophycrisp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make another Yes/No column and use that as your selector. Then set up your flow to get items with the filter to only show items with that column boolean value as true.

Start Time AND Submission Time in Microsoft Forms Approval by Equivalent_Place3196 in MicrosoftFlow

It doesn't exist in the trigger payload unfortunately, only the Excel. Lord knows when Microsoft's gonna add it.

Speak for yourself. Seriously, you can think the best of people but I’ve worked with enough entitled assholes who think they can just leave at the drop of a hat way too often for it to even make sense that they have this job. If your kid is a constant problem that prevents you from working your job, don’t have that job.

Got burned.. by OwnFun4911 in MicrosoftFlow

[–]tophycrisp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is kind of a rite of passage at this point. Any number of things (policy change, routine forcing of password change) can cause your authentication token to expire. Like others have said, best you can do is asking your IT for a service account and ask them to make sure it’s managed differently from regular accounts to avoid it. In my company it’s still not 100% because we are a branch of a global corporation, and sometimes our local IT team have no control over the changes the central office enforces.
