    Hi @rajatk09 ,

    as said in article Project-docs-pr/LookupEntryCreationInformation.md at master · OfficeDev/Project-docs-pr (github.com) parameter 'Value' is of type LookupEntryValue so the value of parameter 'Value' should be

    {'Decimal':'110'}
    The full body of the request would be like

    {'parameters':{

    'Value':{'Decimal':'110'},
    'Description':'Added from Flow',
    'SortIndex':'7',
    'ParentId':'dd67bf95-85a3-eb11-bfa0-00155dc0a600'
    }}
