Sharing my Power Automate Flow: Save Education Management Advanced List as CSV
Summary
This flow pulls an Advanced List from Education Management, dynamically reads the header rows and data, and creates a CSV file containing all of the data.
Required Connections
Google Drive (this connection can be replaced with any other connection that includes a Create File action, such as: SFTP-SSH, OneDrive, or SharePoint)
Education Management
Suggested Skill Level
Beginner
Configuration Needs
1. Update the Recurrence trigger to match the frequency you need the file to be created. It is currently set to Daily at 2 AM.
2. Update the Initialize Variable list ID action with the ID of your Advanced List.
3. Update the Initialize Variable file name action with the file name for the .csv file.
Note: If you want the file name to include a date/time stamp, you can include an expression as part of the file name.
- To include only a date stamp add the expression formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyyMMdd')
- To include the full date/time stamp add the expression utcNow()

Hi @Giovanni Franco - Take a look here for information on how to import the flow. Then the instructions on this page should guide you through what is needed after importing.

Hi Ashley - how does this flow differ from Rebecca Sundquist's loop?

@Carolyn Stevens This Flow is meant for connecting and getting data only from one List. The Flow shared by Rebecca is designed to allow for multiple Lists to be run from the one Flow.
The use case for Rebecca's Flow is really designed to support complex reporting needs where you need data from multiple Lists. The use case for this Flow is designed to help you get data from a List to then do something else for one specific task - maybe that's a one off report or maybe further manipulating within Power Automate to support other automation needs.
Hope this helps!
