How To Create A Copy Of Item In Another List

Introduction

Power Automate is cloud-based software that allows us to create and automate workflows and tasks across multiple applications and services. Microsoft flow helps you to simplify the day-to-day repetitive tasks to flows, that can run or execute automatically without much manual intervention.

Requirement

To create a copy of the item in the destination list from the source list.

Solution

We will consider Source List as "Resource" and Destination List as "MasterList". Now we will create an empty list for both as below,

Source List: Resource

Destination List: MasterList

STEP 1

Choose "When an item is created" template and select "Site Address" and "List Name" as shown below,

STEP 2

Choose the "Get Item" Template by clicking on the "+ New step" button as shown below.

Provide "Site Address", "List Name" and the "ID". ID should be chosen from the Dynamic content section.

STEP 3 - Choose "When an item is created" template 

Map the Title, Designation, and Phone from the Dynamic content section.

Note
Choose Title, Designation, and Phone from "Get item" as highlighted in the below image.

Save the MS Flow.

STEP 5

Create an item in the source list "Resource".

STEP 6

Check the status of the MS Flow in History section.

Here we will see the item is copied to the destination list successfully.
