This may be something simple, but I can't update a string var using "Set Var".
First I initialized the var:
Then I try to set the var:
And I get a non-descriptive error:
I also tried wrapping my string in "double" or 'single' quotes. Did not help.
Hi @marmot777
Pls try replacing input of switch action with an expression mentioned below:
Below expression needs to be added in the expression box as highlighted in the above screenshot:
int(variables('Delta Due Date Text'))
If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.
Thanks Manish for taking a look. When I entered the expression in the Switch function, I got the following error upon running.
I felt the switch was working before. I observed the flow running through Case 2 or Case 3 as expected (and then erroring).
This example shows it successfully switching on a value of 7, and then erroring.
After looking closer, your solution works. I just had to change
to
int(variables('Delta Due Date'))
in order to reference the right variable.
