How to update Built-In formula next to "Array" on "Split on" in the Trigger Setting?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by SueA 555

I have a SharePoint trigger "When a file is created (properties only)".

At one time I was trying to see if I can use split in settings of the trigger to have two scenarios where file has data and if file is empty and somewhere along the way I changed the built-in formula for the split. Now it has wrong formula and the FLOW fails. Is there a way to fix this mishap?

Below are the snippets:

The CORRECT TRIGGER:

How can I change from: 
@triggerBody()?['body/value']

to:

@triggerOutputs()?['body/value']

without recreating the entire very large FLOW?

 

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,

SueA.

    First, do a Save a Copy of your Flow in case something goes wrong. After that, you can just delete your trigger and replace it with a new one.

    Thank you, Pat Mahoney!

    All the YouTube Videos and the classes I took, told me that once the Trigger is created, it cannot be undone. Thus, I was in a real dilemma.  This was so much easier to just change/replace the trigger and update all the steps where the Trigger was referenced as compare to spending hours in recreating a very large FLOW!

    I appreciate you giving me the level of confidence in taking the above steps to replace the trigger and giving me the solution to my issue in a timely manner.

    Thank you.

    SueA.
