Hi @treddfw

Could you show what you have done in add to list action ?

I assume you have added text as each element to list not as custom object. For writing custom object to list- follow this approach for example-

Thanks Nived for the assist. When I add the "%" to prefix and suffix the code, it gives me a syntax error.

Here's what my code currently does:

Add Item: { 'Name': %FileName%, 'ContentBytes': %BinaryData% }

In the support URL listed at the beginning of my post, the suggested code to use is as follows:

{'Name': %variable holding the file name%, 'ContentBytes': %variable containing the binary data%}

Hi @treddfw

The way you have written the expression is wrong - it should be like this

Add Item: %{ 'Name': FileName, 'ContentBytes': BinaryData }%

That's what it took....Thank you so much!
Looks like the documentation is wrong.
The only time the "%" is used is as prefix and suffix. The "%" is not used in the variables themselves.
Thanks again!
