Back with another one.

I’ve got a computed column(chatgpt message no history) that is generating some text for me but I cannot use this as a notes component as it seems to be only standard text that can be used for those.

How can I convert this to a standard text column to be used in the notes component?

Cheers.

You need a Set Column action somewhere in your flow to write that computed value into a basic text column.
