I am having issues with budilding actions with OneNote.

I am building flow for HR department, to create page in existing OneNote notebook, for each new submitted job aplication.

I created Interview Notes notebook and created section called Applicants. Idea is create new page for each aplications submitted through other process. Thejn I use "Create Page in Section" action. I can select requred Notebook then using dropdown "Section ID' to select my section.

But for some reason I only see "Untitled Section" or enter custom value? Dont see my specific section.

More, I tried create another notebook, same issue, and after adding secon dsection I see one section only, cant see second one.

Re: Issue with OneNote actions, lookup notebook sections

This issue is not solved at all. I have the same problem and there is no rhyme or reason as to why it is occurring. I am testing several Notebooks on a O365 tenant and all behave differently. In some notebooks I get an error stating that a section couldn't even be found, while in others it is showing the Untitled title.

Hi eugacc,

Thanks for updating. It might relate to how the notebook is created.

Please consider using the notebook that can show proper section sections in your flow.

Best regards,

I did deleted connection and added again, but still see same result. I can confirm that this related to specific notebook rather than all notebooks, as I can see proper section selections in dropdown for other Notebooks.

Hi @eugacc,

Please try to recreate your connection then try again with it.

When testing with the action "Create page in a section", all the sections are displayed when clicking the dropdown button of the Section Id field.

If you are still having the issue, please feel free post back.

Best regards,
