SharePoint Filename From Column

Status: Implemented Submitted by on ‎05-11-2022 06:59 AM

I recently began using the SharePoint Files v2.0.1 tools to read and write data. The SharePoint Files Output tool allows you to take a sheet or filename from a column but that column is still included in the output. The standard Output Data tool has a "Keep Field in Output" checkbox that allows you to control if the column stays in the XLSX of CSV file. It would be great if this same functionality could be included in the SharePoint Files Output tool.

Hi @MattBenj , you're absolutely right. We have this already in our roadmap for the next version of the Sharepoint tools, which is planned for its release in August.

This option was implemented in the 2.2.0 version.

Maybe I'm just missing this @VojtechT, but I don't see this option anywhere in the Sharepoint Output tool in v2.2.0 or 2.3.0. The release notes say this was specifically implemented for sheet naming, but I'm interested in it for File names as well. I am creating a dynamic file name using the formula tool and want to use this for naming the output file on a Sharepoint site, but I don't want that column included in the output.
