error with flow - Action 'Parse_JSON' failed

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi all,

 

I have an error with my flow - Action 'Parse_JSON' failed:

Details:

Unable to process template language expressions in action 'Parse_JSON' inputs at line '0' and column '0': 'Required property 'content' expects a value but got null. Path ''.'.

It appears when a the file upload feature on the MS Form is not inputted, but as this question on the Form is optional we need this flow to work either when the file upload is present or not. 

 

Attached is a screenshot. 

 

Many thanks,

 

Andy

    Hey @Teaquell 

    Not sure this method will work in your case or not.

    But modify your parse json.

     

    Where ever you are getting error.

     

    Just modify somethings there.

    So for example, the following is written there:

    "type": "string"

    Instead of the above write there:

    "type": ["string","null"]

    Hi @Teaquell 

     

    Try the below steps:

     

    Step1: Remove the Parse Json step and run the flow.

    Step2: Copy the body from the Get response details output and paste to Parse JSON Schema.

    Step3: Add Parse JSON and provide Schema.

    Step4: Run the flow again

    Let me know if this works for you.
