The input body for trigger 'manual' of type 'Request' did not match its schema definition.

I have a flow that is triggered via HTTP Requests and is designed to collect variables such as `office`, `location` and `staff` via GET from the URL.

The procedure runs well and executes successfully, however, the moment I try to write the variables to an excel file, I am greeted by the below error:

{
 "error": {
 "code": "TriggerInputSchemaMismatch",
 "message": "The input body for trigger 'manual' of type 'Request' did not match its schema definition. The input body is missing required schema properties. "
 }
}

 

Now, obviously the issue has to do with the variables and the variable / object definition. All 3 variables are defined as strings, below a sample.

 

Request JSON Schema:

 

{
 "type": "object",
 "details": {
 "office": {
 "type": "string"
 },
 "location": {
 "type": "string"
 },
 "staff": {
 "type": "string"
 }
 },
 "required": [
 "office",
 "location",
 "staff"
 ]
}

 

 

I initiated individual variables where I again defined the parameter values as strings, but no success.

What do I have to do to get the variables in the correct format in order to write them to an excel file? Really at the end of my wits here, appreciate any help you can give.

 

Thank you

    Well, turns out deleting the trigger and setting it up again worked like a charm.... Cannot believe that worked...
