Success confirmation on a record submission - Canvas Application

In this post let us see, how to show a successfully submitted record's data back on to the form, as a confirmation. Take two screens  Home Screen Success Screen On Home Screen: Take a Form Control on the Home Screen and map it to respective entity. In this post we are mapping it to Registrations entity.

Convert an array to string in Power Automate (MS Flows)

converting an array value to a string using Power Automate out of the box function. " how to convert an array to string " in MS Flows. Basically, we can use "split" function to convert an array into string but we may end up having extra comma to the last value. To remove that we have to use another expression which checks for the string length and removes the last character [ substring(variables('varListOfRequestIDs'),0,sub(length(variables('varListOfRequestIDs')),1)) ]. To avoid this round about process rocess, we can leverage Power Automate's simple and out of the box function -  join Here is an to show how can we convert an array to string. for instance let's consider, we have an array [796759,933436,926050,1388108,762632,764554]. But as per the requirement, we need to convert it to string and send that value as 796759,933436,926050,1388108,762632,764554.  varListOfRequestIDs = [796759,933436,926050,1388108,762632,764554] varStringListOfRe...
