I tried using prebuilt activity for creating one note page in a section. Using the HTML body I am unable to add the title for the OneNote page. I was hoping if someone can guide me how to add heading/title to the OneNote page.

Activity used for creating the page:

Page created by the workflow:

Unable to add title to OneNote page

Hi,

I realize the question has been considered answered, but just in case the above did not work solution did not work for you (as it did not for me)...

Try using the old designer view and then using the HTML code as described above:

I noticed a onenote flow that I had to rebuild using a new Power Automate account was failing to add a title to a page (despite having previously worked using the above HTML example... I copied the flow exactly, the only difference I could think of was that the old flow was built using the old designer).

I entered the exact same HTML on the old designer (toggling using the button below), and to my disbelief it worked.

Not sure if this is a bug or not - I am by no means an expert in Power Automate. All I know is that removing the DOCTYPE tag, trying numerous variants in the new designer, failed to populate the page title. The exact same HTML code populated the page title without issue on the old designer. Go figure...

I am able to update the title of the page, using the "update page content" activity after creating the page. I had to add a delay for about 1 min before updating the title otherwise flow was not able to find the page. Here the content URL (page id) is output from "Create page in a section"

Hi,

I tried like this -

It would create page in onenote with Hellow Title as shown below

Remove the <!DOCTYPE html> tag in your code and it will work !
