Can't pick up the value of a choice field

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 14

Hello,

 

I have a MS form with a (drop down) choice list and I'm using MS flow to write the submitted form into a Sharepoint list. However, I can't pick up (single value) choice fields - it errors every time. If I remove the choice fields from the flow then it works perfectly.

The error just says "Bad request"

 

One of the fields is called "Salutation"

    Hi @aliceo,

     

    Could you please share a bit more about your SharePoint list?

    Is the Salutation column a Choice type column (which does not allow multiple selections) in your SharePoint list?

     

    I have made a test on my side and don't have the issue that you mentioned. My flow's configuration as below:22.JPG

    The flow works successfully as below:23.JPGPlease take a try to re-create your flow again to check if the issue is solved. In addition, you could also take a try to re-create a new connection to the "Create item" action and then try your flow again to check if the issue is solved.

     

    Best regards,

    Kris

    Hi Kris,

     

    yes that field is a choice and does not allow multiple values. I'll try re-creating the flow as you suggested and see if that helps.

    Unfortunately, re-creating the flow didn't work. If I remove the Salutation field from the flow, everything is fine, so it's definitely something to do with that. Very frustrating!
