With the new version 2.51 of Power Automate Desktop, the "recognize text entities" action does not recognize a date with dd/MM/yy format, which it did in previous versions. Does anyone know what happened?

    Hi there,
     
    Yeah even I noticed, its looks like issue with this current version and I managed with parse text.
     
    Please feel free to raise this to Microsoft.

    How is it possible that a large company like Microsoft releases versions of its products with errors that can cause great harm to its customers?

    After updating to v2.51.231.24333 the Recognize Entities in Text action no longer recognizes currency values in text.  There seem to be multiple problems with this action introduced by the update.  There is an issue on Feedback Hub about this problem posted by lcsd.  You might consider upvoting this issue (access Feedback under the Help menu in PAD).
     
    Unfortunately, the Parse Text action would be a very labor intensive alternative for me.  Here's hoping for a "quick" fix.

    same issue here for dates with dd/MM/yyyy
     
    I suppose we have to wait for a fix? My end of the year accounting is blocked as I cannot run my scripts!
     
    any idea/news when this will be fixed? where can we get the info?

    Hi,

    I'm currently using version 2.52.62.25009, and this issue has been fixed. It's working properly now.
