Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I'm trying to build a flow where it will reply to a message that was posted to a channel in Teams earlier in the flow to confirm a second step but I cannot figure out how to get the message ID from the earlier message.

Any help would be greatly appreciate.

Thanks!!

Hi @Anonymous

When you pose the first message to the channel the message id should be available in dynmaic content but tsince this action is in preview it seems it is not showing anything except Body

However expressions to the rescue
Use expression
body('Post_a_message_(V3)')?['id'] to get message id
where Post_a_message_(V3) is the name of the action of the first message posted in Flow

Note : No need to do get all messages

I just tried using your solution but get the following error:

OpenApiOperationParameterTypeConversionFailed. The 'inputs.parameters' of workflow operation 'Post_a_reply_to_a_message_(V2)_2' of type 'OpenApiConnection' is not valid. Error details: Input parameter 'messageId' is required to be of type 'Integer/int32'. The runtime value '"1574381349127"' to be converted doesn't have the expected format 'Integer/int32'.

So,

I have tried every avenue possible but every single time the test succeeds, it replies to every single message in the channel I have designated for the end user. So how do I change it to find a specific keyword in the body of the message and only reply to that single post that it needs to reply to.

Background Info: i am trying to create a helpdesk ticket system using Issue Tracking List. We are on Office365 so I am using modern sharepoint site and list.
