""Duplicate chat members is specified in the request body."" when creating a MS Teams Chat from Flow

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hello!

 

I've made the newbie mistake of adding myself to the users to whom the chat will be created, so I get that error in the subject. I undersand form this answer that I shouldnt add myself, as I'm there by default: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Can-t-Create-a-Teams-Group-Chat-in-Flow/m-p/963030

 

The thing is that If I do not add myself, chat opens for others BUT not for me. I dont see anything in MS teams.

so If I add myself, flow fails, I f I dont, I'm not in the chat. 

 

the account I use in flow is the same corporate account I use in teams

 

 

any hint?

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    A workaround could be to use a service account for the connection in the Create a Chat action in the Power Automate flow.

     

    This way you are able to add yourself and the chat should open while not getting the error.

    Thanks;

     

    I've been llooking into it, and seems I need a different license for this. I dont feel comfortable having to pay for a special license to solve what I think is a bug (or at least it makes little sense).

     

    thanks!

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Ok, fair point. In that case you could also contact Microsoft support and see if they can help you out with that potential bug:

    https://powerautomate.microsoft.com/en-us/support/

     

    In the meantime I will think about an alternative workaround which does not require additional licensing
