Two flow models are available in Power Automate so you can import from Excel into Finalcad:
observations
forms
In the Excel file of your choice, start by preparing your table
Create the columns below. The name of these columns must be strictly followed.
Description | Responsible | Due Date | body_id | Num |
1 | ||||
2 | ||||
3 |
Description | Responsible | Due Date | Fc_id | Num |
1 | ||||
2 | ||||
3 |
For the columns listed below, fill in the rows with information about the items (observations or forms) that you want to import into Finalcad
Description:
The name of the item
Responsible: The assigned person
DueDate: The due date
Num: The unique key of the row in your Excel spreadsheet
It allows actions such as Update a row (Update a row) to target and modify the correct row based on its unique Num value. This ensures that each operation is performed on the intended data row, without risk of confusion.
In Power Automate, you can now configure your flow.
