@@khasimshaik2606 500 columns are too many. You need to look into redesigning the lists or selecting a better data source (relational database) to meet your needs. It would take time to generate your output because of so many columns. I have no solution for this.
Hi Many thanks for the amazing video. Just one issue I am facing, everything else has been created as expected but no data coming on the Excel table. Just
Everything that Reza teaches us matters, collecting and structuring data is EXTREMELY important. I am in the middle of a Data Science program with MIT and the fist thing we do is to collect and clean data before any analysis. So pay extra attention what Reza says , it will make a hell of a difference later. Clean data is like drinking clean water. Thank you Reza!
I watched a few videos on this topic, but none were as clear and easy to follow as this one! I appreciate that you explained why you were doing each step as well. Thank you.
Finally found this AMAZING video! I haven't found anyone else that address the creation of an Excel file from scratch as you have. THANK YOU! This is going to save me hours and hours!
I don't know how but I can always find a video on your channel related to the problem I'm facing 😃...that means your content is 'real world problem solving content' thanks for your efforts
This instructions are amazing. I found one tweak though. It’s not mandatory to provide the accurate range during create table step. Even if I create table with 2 columns only, the header names will be populated as a table only
Is it possible to reuse this code with a collection or gallery of Power apps? , It caught my attention that you did not do the example with powerapps only with Dataverse and Planner
Possible. Same concept applies. I will add this idea to my backlog but will need a lot more folks requesting this topic to give it a higher priority. Meanwhile, I will recommend checking the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com/ in case someone has done something similar.
Thank you Reza , With this video reference i managed to complete my few reports automation . However the workflow gives wrong value as power automate uses the UTC format . would it be possible to share the expression for date and time created field .( 3:20 )
Hello Reza, Time zone conversion is well explained on ua-cam.com/video/O97IdCbfMQI/v-deo.html . However am trying to convert column "Created" and updating in an excel from SharePoint list , I lost in here . Looking for the expression in Select operation ,Date and Time should be converted time zone of my :Created" Column .
Hi Reza, your videos are definetly amongst the best that I've come across, just a tip, you might want to consider zooming in just a slight bit when making the video. Even on full screen I cant see some of the json code,so I have to go out the video to look for external content on google and then come back to the tutorial. Thank for the tone of effort that you put into these videos!!

Hey Reza, your video tutorials have been super helpful for my project, but I've got a question. So, the thing is, I've got more than 1000 rows in my SharePoint list, but when I run my Flow automation, it's only grabbing 100 rows. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks again, by the way!
Awesome video. This has help me a lot. I was wondering if it was possible to use power query in excel with this method. For instance: when excel file is sent to an outlook email. Grab that file and use power query to clean data then create another file to email the cleaned data. Not sure if it’s possible. Thanks
Excelent video as always, I am a "Reza addict". always waiting for your next video. Personally most of the very long live events, not including the expressions series, are totally a waist of time for me. Thank you

Thanks, Reza. It was definitively a well-explained video over how to export to Excel. I have two questions: Is it possible to change the name of the exported Excel file to something (unique) more User-meaningful instead of the GUID? Do you have a similar video where the destination of the file is Sharepoint not OneDrive?
You could call the file anything you desire. I used guid to keep it unique. I do not have a SharePoint based video. I will recommend checking on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com/ in case someone has done something similar.
Thanks for this video. Exactly what I am looking for. Instead of OneDrive for Business to store files, I used Sharepoint Library. The steps are similar to using OneDrive for Business connector. Works great This video also answered my question regarding dynamic table range. Great video!
Hi Jay, I am looking for something si,ilar to what you did, using Sharepoint instead of OneDrive, would you care sharing your flow ( provided there is no security data involved)?
Hi Reza, it's amazing and really useful. I've created the same flow for exporting an Excel report from SP List but encountered an error that the Excel file attached at the email is not openable. However, the same Excel file generated at the OneDrive folder is openable. I've 100% followed the steps and details as yours and now I can't resolve the issue. Hope you may help please!!!

You rock Reza, but what about if I use the action of create a File and then create a table but I have 2 tabs in that file. I want to create 2 tables, one for each tab in the same flow, because it takes only the first tab when I run the flowm.I need your help:(
Reza, this is super helpful. Just a quick question. I don't need the file name to be different every time this runs. Is that a problem? If I keep the file name the same(e.g updatedschedule.xlsx) will the file be automatically overridden?
@@RezaDorrani gave it a try and there is a snag. There is a 400 or 423 Error that occasionally happens when overwriting the same file in the directory which runs into the flow throwing an error and stopping. However, there is a workaround that several folks have pointed out. Some involved adding a loop until the lock is removed, while other's have a routine at the API server level to clear the lock immediately. All good solutions. Thanks again.
Perfect tutorial, thanks for it. Do you happen to know how I can also export Vlookup column values? When I try to match them in the select step, there is an error at the end of the flow (Add a row into a table) saying that 'A value must be provided for item.' Thanks

@@RezaDorrani I found my error. I had the delay set in the wrong place, so I was essentially delaying the sending of the email instead of delaying the attachment to the email. I will blame it on not enough coffee in the morning 😁
thanks a lot Reza !!! it works perfect :-) the only problem that I have is that instead of sending it per email I need to save the excel file into a Teams folder (and post the link there). I tried with "Post a message in a chat or channel" but I cannot attach the excel file like when sending by email. Would you have a solution for that ?
Thanks for watching and liking the video. For saving in teams folder, I guess you would need to use SharePoint actions since Teams backend is SharePoint. I don’t think post a message supports attachments. I would recommend to post your query on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com in case someone has done something similar.

Wonderfully detailed! Is there a way, or do you have a video that instructs how to use date and choice inputs from the manual trigger to create a table? I wish to create an Excel table from instant Flow, being able to choose beginning date, ending date, and choice field selections. My attempts to incorporate this into the OData filter query fails. Any guidance is greatly appreciated. I may be trying to do the impossible 🤔
Nice work Reza :) but in your recent videos, you are trying to cover a lot of things that increase the complexity of the flow and somewhere I am losing the focus. Please try to give more time to explain the "actions" which you are using inside the flow, thank you!
Thanks for the feedback. I did provide sample flows in my recent videos which can be downloaded. Plan was to cover more scenarios. I will try and strike a better balance in future videos.
Awesome, tutorial Rezza, Thanks. I have a query though. I have made this flow as you have explained and have added a filter query, but I only seem to be getting the results of my filter query from the first 100 records in my sharepoint list. Is there a reason for this???
Thank you very much Reza for your videos. I wanted to tell you how to export fields from the sharepoint list that are vlookup, I have not been able to do it. Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching and liking my videos. Lookup columns in SharePoint are complex type columns. You will need to extract the values from it and then export that to excel. I do not have a video on this scenario. I will recommend to check on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com in case someone has done something similar
@@RezaDorrani I had one question or request - The file name that comes as output is a mix of #'s and alphabets... Is there a way we can have the some naming convention for the file. In My flow, the column I am filtering is Name of Managers and I would like the excel to have a specific naming convention. In case you are able to clarify, I will be highlly obliged, other wise, I thank you for such a fantastic video.
Thanks Reza, great video!!! In the case that you need to fill a complex template such as an invoice, maybe you can reference invoice template cells with the table cells. Or you have a better workaround?
Not sure to be honest. It depends on where the data is coming from. Are you trying to extract data directly from an invoice document using AI Builder? Concept would be similar. Build the Select action and provide that to the pattern showcased in the flow.
Great explanation! Do you have a video that explains when it is connected to SQ server? I want to connect to SQL server(Execute a SQL query(V2)), create a table in excel and send an email.
Hi Reza, thank you for this video. It was just about perfect for my project I was working on. I do have a question for you (or anyone else who has solved this): When the data is brought into the newly created Excel file (based on the template I have), it formats the Excel table with the default formatting. This does not look good or even fit with the rest of the template I have created. Is there a way of either a) pre-formatting an Excel table and inserting my data into that table, or b) formatting the table as it gets created inside my file? Thank you!
Hi Reza, Thank you for this. I have an issue that because sometimes one of the fields are blank i keep getting the error 'A value must be provided for item.'. Do you know a work around?
Hi Reza, nice video thank you! I just have one question: is it possible to add more than one row at a time to an excel table? Because it takes too much time adding to the table many rows. Do you know if exists an alternative way?
You would need to look into excel api's if it allows bulk additions. I have not attempted that. I will recommend checking on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com/ in case someone has done something similar.
Hi Reza, great video. When I search for "current Item" it doesn't come up as an option. Do you know why that could be? any help would be greatly appreciated

Nice video Reza! I'm trying to create an Export to Excel feature within Canvas App that would only export the items in a gallery (even after the user filters that gallery; So, columns and rows they want to export to excel will change every time they filter the gallery). How do I approach this? Every tutorial I find wants me to decide the columns before-hand but I want to be able to let the user decide what data to be exported.
Columns do not change when user filters a gallery. Only the row changes. There is no selector option for columns in power apps and that’s why there are no tutorials on it. I have a video coming out tomorrow that will showcase how to export large data. In there I also talk about exporting columns dynamically using list views. However here as well there would need to be some predefined views which have columns set for exporting. But at least it would give some level of flexibility.
Thanks for this video. Is it possible however to dynamically loop through the columns of a table? Imagine we have an Excel that always has a properly formatted table, but we don't know the name of its columns nor the amount beforehand, apart from one column name that we know will always be present (not that we really care). Is it possible to copy some of these rows (let's imagine the 10th row and first) to a new table?
I am not sure about looping through columns (might be possible via graph api) and would have to try it out to provide guidance. I would recommend posting your query with screenshots on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com

Hello Dorrani, I have created a schedule flow in Power automate that pulls data from one Excel sheet and then pastes it into another sheet. The flow looks like Recurrence>List rows present in a table>Add a row in a table. My flow runs monthly and works fine. My Excel sheet has 13 columns (Professor name, January, February, March........December). But the problem is In January, My flow runs and gives me January data. However, in February, it runs again and it gives me data for February along with January data. I just want new data, not the months that I have already in my sheet. Each month, my colleagues input data in a specific column. For example, , in January, my colleagues made sure which professor was present in that month and input Present/Absent in the January column. In February, she does the same thing for February. Now my manager wants to change my schedule flow in a way that will pull data each month once the data is inputted already and the data should not have any duplicates. Could you please tell me how can I do that in Power Automate?

It recommends that I make sure Create File is successfully creating a file, that it is returning the correct file ID, and that the file ID is being passed correctly as a parameter to the Create Table action. A file IS being created. How can I tell if the file ID is correct and is being passed correctly? Btw, my data is coming from a Power app trigger, so I am not sure if that makes a difference or not.

Very informative and real-world schenario based video. Thank you Reza !! Quick question: While generating csv file, I can see columns are sorted in ascending order even provided in random order (expected). Can we retain column ordering in csv file? I saw in flow content action, input is already sorted in ascending order. Hence it seems the PowerApps Json function is causing issue (automatically sorting columns to ascending order ) .

Thank You! Alphabetical sequence is an in-built behavior of the Create CSV table action. In advanced options for create csv table action, you can define custom columns and list out the header and values. Those will be ordered. Its more work.

Hey Reza, your video tutorials have been super helpful for my project, but I've got a question. So, the thing is, I've got more than 1000 rows in my SharePoint list, but when I run my Flow automation, it's only grabbing 100 rows. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks again, by the way!
Increase row limit + explore pagination property. Check documentation on flow action for get rows.

Thank you Reza, the A1 notation mapping resulted WAY easier than I expected 😁 as always, thanks for such a useful and insightful video.
Great to hear! Thank You for watching.
Awesome video. This has help me a lot. I was wondering if it was possible to use power query in excel with this method. For instance: when excel file is sent to an outlook email. Grab that file and use power query to clean data then create another file to email the cleaned data. Not sure if it’s possible. Thanks
I’m not sure either. I would recommend checking on forums in case someone has tried it.

Hi Reza.. Playing with different components of O365 I have to learn from you.. You make the life easy..

Thank you for the video, i have one question. in the excel attached in the email i get one row all the time, even if there are more rows in de sharepoint list. How do i set the number of rows?
I have not come across any issue where its only 1 row all the time. I recommend posting your issue with screenshots on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com
Thanks, Reza. It was definitively a well-explained video over how to export to Excel. I have two questions: Is it possible to change the name of the exported Excel file to something (unique) more User-meaningful instead of the GUID? Do you have a similar video where the destination of the file is Sharepoint not OneDrive?
You could call the file anything you desire. I used guid to keep it unique.
I do not have a SharePoint based video.
I will recommend checking on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com/ in case someone has done something similar.
Thanks for this video. Exactly what I am looking for. Instead of OneDrive for Business to store files, I used Sharepoint Library. The steps are similar to using OneDrive for Business connector. Works great
This video also answered my question regarding dynamic table range. Great video!
Glad to hear the video is useful. Thanks for watching Jay.
Hi Jay, I am looking for something si,ilar to what you did, using Sharepoint instead of OneDrive, would you care sharing your flow ( provided there is no security data involved)?
Thanks Reza. You are wonderful person. Your explanation is really wonderful.

Hi Reza, it's amazing and really useful. I've created the same flow for exporting an Excel report from SP List but encountered an error that the Excel file attached at the email is not openable.

Welcome
You rock Reza, but what about if I use the action of create a File and then create a table but I have 2 tabs in that file. I want to create 2 tables, one for each tab in the same flow, because it takes only the first tab when I run the flowm.I need your help:(
Thanks! I have not tried with 2 tabs so not sure.
Reza, this is super helpful. Just a quick question. I don't need the file name to be different every time this runs. Is that a problem? If I keep the file name the same(e.g updatedschedule.xlsx) will the file be automatically overridden?
I believe it will. Best is to give it a try and check.
@@RezaDorrani gave it a try and there is a snag. There is a 400 or 423 Error that occasionally happens when overwriting the same file in the directory which runs into the flow throwing an error and stopping. However, there is a workaround that several folks have pointed out. Some involved adding a loop until the lock is removed, while other's have a routine at the API server level to clear the lock immediately. All good solutions. Thanks again.
@@TheOxIshere Workaround sounds like a good idea :)
Perfect tutorial, thanks for it. Do you happen to know how I can also export Vlookup column values? When I try to match them in the select step, there is an error at the end of the flow (Add a row into a table) saying that 'A value must be provided for item.'

thanks a lot Reza !!! it works perfect :-) the only problem that I have is that instead of sending it per email I need to save the excel file into a Teams folder (and post the link there). I tried with "Post a message in a chat or channel" but I cannot attach the excel file like when sending by email. Would you have a solution for that ?

For saving in teams folder, I guess you would need to use SharePoint actions since Teams backend is SharePoint. I don’t think post a message supports attachments.

@@sankhlayashraj You have full control over file name. Not sure whats the challenge with changing it?
Thanks Reza, great video!!! In the case that you need to fill a complex template such as an invoice, maybe you can reference invoice template cells with the table cells. Or you have a better workaround?
Not sure to be honest. It depends on where the data is coming from. Are you trying to extract data directly from an invoice document using AI Builder?
Concept would be similar. Build the Select action and provide that to the pattern showcased in the flow.

Do you happen to have a tutorial simular to this, but allows us to create the Excel file in SharePoint, instead of in OneDrive?
I have done several videos and do not remember each one of them. I may have shown it but dont remember which video.

Love this video Reza! I'm a Flow novice. During the select operation (to select columns), can this be dynamic as well?

Select can be made dynamic but complexity would increase. Something that I have not tried before.
Hi Reza, thank you for this video. It was just about perfect for my project I was working on. I do have a question for you (or anyone else who has solved this): When the data is brought into the newly created Excel file (based on the template I have), it formats the Excel table with the default formatting. This does not look good or even fit with the rest of the template I have created. Is there a way of either a) pre-formatting an Excel table and inserting my data into that table, or b) formatting the table as it gets created inside my file? Thank you!
I am not sure if that is possible. I will recommend checking on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com/ in case someone has done something similar.
@@RezaDorrani Thank you Reza.
Hi Reza, Thank you for this. I have an issue that because sometimes one of the fields are blank i keep getting the error 'A value must be provided for item.'. Do you know a work around?

Nice video Reza! I'm trying to create an Export to Excel feature within Canvas App that would only export the items in a gallery (even after the user filters that gallery; So, columns and rows they want to export to excel will change every time they filter the gallery). How do I approach this? Every tutorial I find wants me to decide the columns before-hand but I want to be able to let the user decide what data to be exported.
Columns do not change when user filters a gallery. Only the row changes.
There is no selector option for columns in power apps and that’s why there are no tutorials on it.
I have a video coming out tomorrow that will showcase how to export large data. In there I also talk about exporting columns dynamically using list views. However here as well there would need to be some predefined views which have columns set for exporting. But at least it would give some level of flexibility.
Thanks for this video. Is it possible however to dynamically loop through the columns of a table? Imagine we have an Excel that always has a properly formatted table, but we don't know the name of its columns nor the amount beforehand, apart from one column name that we know will always be present (not that we really care). Is it possible to copy some of these rows (let's imagine the 10th row and first) to a new table?

Hello Dorrani, I have created a schedule flow in Power automate that pulls data from one Excel sheet and then pastes it into another sheet. The flow looks like Recurrence>List rows present in a table>Add a row in a table. My flow runs monthly and works fine. My Excel sheet has 13 columns (Professor name, January, February, March........December). But the problem is In January, My flow runs and gives me January data. However, in February, it runs again and it gives me data for February along with January data. I just want new data, not the months that I have already in my sheet. Each month, my colleagues input data in a specific column. For example, , in January, my colleagues made sure which professor was present in that month and input Present/Absent in the January column. In February, she does the same thing for February. Now my manager wants to change my schedule flow in a way that will pull data each month once the data is inputted already and the data should not have any duplicates. Could you please tell me how can I do that in Power Automate?

Alphabetical sequence is an in-built behavior of the Create CSV table action.
In advanced options for create csv table action, you can define custom columns and list out the header and values. Those will be ordered. Its more work.
