Power Automate to post a message in teams

Posted on by Dhandapani 9

Hi,

 

I have created a flow to post a message in teams for mutiple persons. The flow is getting failed with an error

 

"The variable 'Test' of type 'Array' cannot be initialized or updated with value of type 'String'. The variable 'Test' only supports values of types 'Array'.

    @Dhandapani you don't seem to have completed the quotes in the Initialize Variable Value. Additionally i would like to understand that the Array variable you have here, which has email addresses, you want to use it in post message to teams action for Recipient or Message?

    @Dhandapani  okay so you need to use the Array variable in the Receipent parameter of the action
