Good day,

 

I am trying to update Lists on different site collections which address would be calculated by a column.

 

I would use it like this:

 

this is currently not working because it accepts only direct input for the relative address.

 

Is there a way to accomplish this? 

 

Thank you in advance

  Hi Senad,

   

  At the moment it is not possible to expression for list input in Update List Item action.

  But there are workaround: you can use Script Execute action for this.

  e.g:

  var itemId = 1;
  var siteUrl = [[URLPart]];
  var listTitle = 'MyList';
  var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext(siteUrl);
  var list = clientContext.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle(listTitle);
  var listItem = list.getItemById(itemId);
  listItem.set_item('Title', 'My Updated Title');
  listItem.update();
  clientContext.executeQueryAsync(function(){
    //Item Updated
  }, function(){
    //Error Happened
  }); 

   

  where [[URLPart]] should be full or relative url to the site where you want to update the list.
