I’m going to preface this question by saying I am new to Microsoft Power Automate and I am excited to learn what it can really do.
So… I’m working on a Power Automate flow that grabs information from a connection that uses an API call that generates a JSON object, which is a nested array of JSON objects. Here’s the beginning of the output I get when I use that action:
{
"count": 790,
"page": 1,
"results": {
"rows": [
{
"columns": [
{
"name": "user_id",
"value": "12345678"
},
{
"name": "givenName",
"value": "George"
},
{
"name": "surname",
"value": "Washington"
},
{
"name": "year",
"value": "1776"
},
{
"name": "role",
"value": "Incoming Student"
}
]
}
}
So what I’m looking to do in Power Automate is to get the values of user_id, givenName, surname, year, and role for each person out and get them into a CSV or table. For the life of me I can’t figure out how to make Power Automate do this, despite reading the various documentation and references available. It just… doens’t work the way I hoped it would.
Would anyone on here be willing and able to give me some much-needed guidance? I thank you all in advance for your expertise and your help!

I tried using the Data Operations functions like Select and Filter Array but I can’t seem to suss out the data I need.
