I would like to Auto Increment a Column using MS Flow in SharePoint Online List.

Any instructions on how to do that?

Followed many articles , but that does not use MS Flow, (typically covers using workflow)

  • I tried with Custom Action, but the point where i am stuck is how do i store the variable . The Logic is to get the ID(values from some other list) and store it in variable , increment to next value and assign the variable to my column. Can you please point how to do that?
