Incorrect string format currency

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by
Hi!
I have a flow connected to power apps.
The flow consists of extracting data from excel, going through a json schema and returning a collect to the application.
The problem is in the currency format of the "Purchase Value" field.
While in the Excel spreadsheet I have the value "R$ 11,22", the Json returns the value "1.122,00".

I've already tried changing the format in the app using a standard text format for coins. But it did not work.
I believe I have to fix it in the Json schema itself. But I don't know how to do it.
Does anyone have an idea how to resolve?

My Excel is regional Brazil. Scheme: "Provider": { "type": "string" 🇧🇷 "Purchase Value": { "type": "string" 🇧🇷 "REQ": { "type": "string"

Thanks!!!

    Hi @EduardoTranspet ,

     

    The reason is that for flow, there is no currency data type. I suggest you use the float function to convert the currency string back to a number for use.

     

    I think this link will help you a lot:
