Error getting values from excel formulas

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 18

Hello

 

I'm building a flow for an online test in my company.

I've got the forms aswers going to an excel file on a group sharepoint (via forms for excel, no steps on flow involved), and I've added columns with formulas that check the aswers and calculate the final grade.

 

Problem is that when geting the row's value, the columns with formulas are all inputed as "0" in flow

 

Here's some screen prints of the tests

 

Values that flow are geting form columns that are formulas as "0"Values that flow are geting form columns that are formulas as "0"

Appreciate the help, couldn't find anything like this searching the Community.

    Hi @naiani,

     

    There is post with the same issue, it seems the calculate column sometimes will invalid:

    As a workaround, it's recommended that store these data into the SharePoint list, there calculate column could work normally and stability.
