The DFL request failed with status 'InternalServerError

Hi everyone,

I'm facing an issue with the ClickSend SMS connector in Power Automate Desktop. I'm trying to send SMS messages, but I keep getting the following error:

[Insert Error Message Here]

The strange thing is that the same connector works perfectly fine when I use it in a Cloud Flow.

I'm quite new to Power Automate Desktop, so I'm a bit lost on how to troubleshoot this. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Additional info:

      "code": "InternalServerError",
      "message": "Http request failed with unhandled exception of type 'NullReferenceException' and message: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'."
    }
  },
