Hi,

 

I'm trying to create a onenote flow, but the section id list gave me the error:

"Could not retrieve values. The OData query is invalid. An identifier was expected at position 21."

    oh we must have been creating different flows.

    I got around the onenote page issue with creating the page in quicknote and copying them over.

    Im not sure i understood,
    The flow i want to create is:

    When a new page is created in a OneNote section (Onenote page with bug information) , create a task in Planner with the same name as the Onenote Page, and  link the Onenote page.

    The flow works on small onenote notebooks, but when i try to use the larger notebook i want to use,  but the section id list gave me the error First error,  so i tried to use the "Enter custom value" function but it gives me the second error, that the section ID is invalid..

    I'm not sure this will help

    when I created the flow manually it seemed to work with these two steps

    1) when a new email arrives

    2) create a page in quicknotes

     

    then from there just copy the pages to the notebook you want.

    The first problem i got is getting the sections in the Section ID : line
    Getting the error: Could not retrive values. Error: One or more of the documents libraries contains more than 5,000 OneNote items (notebooks, sections, groups) and cannot be required using the API....

     

    The second problem :
    Instead im trying to Enter a custom value. But when entering the Section ID, i get the error:
    "message": "The section id is invalid. If a custom value was entered, please try selecting from the supplied values.
    Even though the SectionID is valid.

    Im stuck..
