User Input Columns

#1 · October 25, 2023, 1:47 pm

What I have is an add list item action in a custom action. I have 2 user input columns both of them are date columns. StartDate and EndDate. Of course they are the same names as the columns in the table. On the predefined user colums tab I am basiclly copying the current item to a new item but want to use the EndDate of the user input column to create a title for a new item. When I use the EndDate it is pulling the date from the current item and not the user input column. Is there a way to differenciate in the expression builder the EndDate in the current item vs the EndDate that is being captured in the user input column? Thanks

Hi,

Please use the variables in Custom Action to take the user input and then use the variable values in column mappings of Add item action.

Instructions:

1.Define variables: Start Date and End Date

2. Configure set variable action by selecting the 'Value Type' as 'User Input' (see screenshot 1).

3. Remove predefined column mappings from add item action and configure the column mappings with expression builder as shown in screenshot 2 below.
