Missing dynamic content in SharePoint document library flow

[dreamsat]

I am using Flow for some Document Library. It is a team flow. I am missing the attribute "Created by Claim" in dynamic content. In the existing flow and document library I dont see it. When I create a new document library and a new flow I can see the attribute. Who can explain why I am missing this dynamic content attribute?

The flow is triggered when someone create a new document or modify the properties of the document.

Here you can see the dynamic content attribute "Created by Claim" exists.

Here you can see the dynamic content attribute "Created by Claim" is missing.

Hey @dreamsat 

There is no reason that the attribute is missing in the other flow. I have made a test on my side with multiple libraries and actions but I am always getting the "Created by Claims" and am unable to replicate the issue you are facing. 

Can you try saving that flow and return to home page and refresh the tab and then go back to the flow and check if you are continuing to face the same issue? 

Can you also try Initialising a String variable between the trigger and the email notification action and try to set the value of the variable as the "Created by Claims" from the dynamic selector? 

Alternatively, you could also try using the expression: 

triggerBody()?['Author']?['Claims']

Hope this Helps!

Hi @dreamsat ,

I have made a test and the issue couldn't be confirmed on my side, please take a try to delete the trigger and re-add it again to see if the dynamic content would appear.

Best regards,

Could it be possible this flow is builded initial as a template. And from that point this template is used for multiple libraries. Maybe this is some issue when you export and import a flow? Because when I create a new blanc template it works. So there is something wrong with this existing flow.

Check the view in your trigger. If you are using some custom view as default view, you will only be able to select the metadata in this view as dynamic content. Add the metadata field "modified by" to your default view and you are able to see it as dynamic content.
