Unsuccessful Creating Workflows (aka Power Automate) in Teams

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4

I encounter this error when I created a "Workflows" in Teams (aka Power Automate) to add a new row to a Teams Power Apps (Dataverse) table for each Microsoft form submit. After successfully selecting the environment of the Teams created in Microsoft Teams, I received the following error message (attached) when I clicked into the "Table name" to choose a table:

    Thanks @creativeopinion 

    What ultimately worked is initiating a cloud flow from inside the power app in Teams. After I initiated it there it made the environment I had used to create the Power App with Teams for Dataverse available in my PowerAutomate account so I could do the rest of the edits from the browser. The other thing that seemed buggy is when I chose the named environment from the dropdown it did not grant me access, but as long as I pointed it to the "Current" environment it worked (although they are one in the same). Thanks for the reply.

    @sd261 Can you show a screenshot of your flow? Also, if you've used the New Designer to edit your flow at all, I would recommend switching to the Classic Designer as the new designer is still buggy. If that doesn't work, you may need to create a brand new flow—switch to the Classic Designer immediately before even making any edits to your flow.

    sd261 - have you had any luck? I'm having the same issue. I've tried accessing the table in Power Apps in Teams where I built an app using Dataverse for teams as well as Workflows in Teams.

    Yes, I did create it using Power Automate directly and encountered the other error message in the attachments (i.e. attachment with the title “error message using Power Automate...".

     

    Thank you for your two suggestions. Unfortunately, I am attempting to get a Microsoft Forms response into a dataverse table in Power Apps.

    @sd261 Instead of creating your automation from Workflows in Teams have you tried to create your flow from Power Automate directly?
