Run Desktop Flow Action - Flow doesn't Run

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 431

I want to Create a Power Fx Enabled flow, separate from my main flow to parse data from a data table. In My Main flow I have %ContactDataTable%. I have assigned its external name to be DataToParse. In My PowerFx flow. I put a breakpoint in the Power Fx flow but it doesn't get reached. When I watch execution in my main flow the Run Dekstop flow step is reached but nothing happens - no error - and execution continues to the next step. Please advise.

 

Here is where I create my output variable

    I recommend against using any Power FX enabled flow for real-time projects because it is currently in the preview stage and has several limitations.
