Create an item in a List using Manual flow

 

Login to Power automate and click on New flow --> Instant cloud flow.












Give the flow name as "Insert Item to List" and select the trigger as "Manual trigger".
























Click on Create. An Empty flow created with manual trigger as shown below.













This flow will create a copy of country data to the backup list "CountryCopy". To accomplish this, we create 2 actions in the flow Get Country Data from the list and Create item in the list. 




















Get country data action takes the data from the list country. It is achieved using an api call with site address and filter query.
















Next, you need to make an Apply to each block and iterate the data in the parent list "Country".

In Create an item in the list action, give the site address and list name as "CountryCopy" and enter the values from the parent list.









































Select the option Manually. Click on Test.
















Click on Run flow. The below message appears.






















The below screenshot shows the country list.



















Data are now copied from Country to CountryCopy list where ID > 5.














New symbol near Switzerland shows the item is created newly. The data in one list is copied to another list using Power automate.
