Hi All,

I am using When a Http request is Recieved to trigger a flow. One of the parameters is a text field which is a free text. I have noticed that if user puts a / in the text, the flow fails to act. I understand the reason why it fails, but is there a way to overcome this as using a / in the text is legitimate.

Thanks in Advance

Hi @SudeepGhatakNZ

Here is my flow

The Schema for the HTTP request is below
{Opt1}/{Owner}/{Opt2}/{Date}/{Opt3}/{Opt4}/{Opt5}/{Concern}/{Text1}/{Text2}/{Text3}

I have replaced sensitive detail with OPT. All the parameters are ok. It is the last three, where the user enters free text and we are not able to restrict what text is entered.

I am unable to reproduce this at my end. My flow runs just fine.

@SudeepGhatakNZ
The HTTP request link is coming from an Excel workbook. I have tested this and I have noticed that the HTTP request wont trigger if there are any special characters in the parameter. Any thoughts?
