Posted on by
I just want a simple loop on Power Automate Desktop, but when I enter 1 as start value and 1 as increase value, it doesn't work. The following error message appears ("numeric value").
WHAT I'm doing wrong???

    Your loop has text value 1
    In Power Fx when you want the value to be a numberic one add equal sign before the number like =1

    Your loop's start value (Start ab) or increment value (Erhöhen um) is not a numeric value. The error suggests that the variable TextAsNumber is not correctly converted to a number.
     
     
     
    You can try with the above solution. It will work
