Power Automate: How to add a space between words in header row of Create HTML Table action

 When you add Create HTML Table action step in Power Automate , you can select to add custom columns as headers. When you enter the column names, you will notice that you cannot add a space as shown below. Strange but true.


Even if you go into Peek Code section of the step, you cannot edit it there.

After spending sometime looking for it on the internet, I found that you need to enter a special character that represents a space character. Here are the 2 steps:

  • Place the cursor between Created & On.
  • Ensure that your NumLock is switch on.
  • Hold down the Alt key and enter 32 using the numpad on your keyboard.
  • That will add a space between the 2 words.

I know, I hear you sigh :)

Unit next time!
