The specified Teams flowbot adaptive card request is missing or invalid.

Posted on by 12

Hi,

I'm trying to make a flow that will trigger when a form is submitted. It will then take information from the form and then create an Adaptive Card in Teams and post it to a channel via the Flow Bot.

When I paste my Card's code into the online card websites it box shows up and looks like it's OK. However, when the flow runs, it gives me the error that the request is missing or invalid.


Here's the flow:

And here's the Card code.  I've never made one of these before so it anyone sees an obvious problem, please let me know.

 

{
	"$schema": "https://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json",
	"type": "AdaptiveCard",
	"version": "1.0",
	"body": [
		{
			"type": "ColumnSet",
			"columns": [
				
				{
					"width": "stretch",
					"items": [
						{
							"type": "TextBlock",
							"text": "ACED IT"
						}
					]
				}
			]
		},
		{
			"type": "ColumnSet",
			"spacing": "large",
			"separator": true,
			"columns": [
				
				{
					"width": "stretch",
					"items": [
						{
							"type": "TextBlock",
							"text": "**@{body('Get_response_details')?['FieldCodeHere']} got an Aced It!**"
						},
						
						{
							"type": "TextBlock",
							"spacing": "small",
							"isSubtle": true,
							"wrap": true,
							"text": "@{body('Get_response_details')?['FieldCodeHere']}"
						},
						{
							"type": "TextBlock",
							"spacing": "none",
							"isSubtle": true,
							"wrap": true,
							"text": "From: @{body('Get_response_details')?['FieldCodeHere']}"
						}
					]
				}
			]
		}
	]
}

    @v-lin-msft I have the same issue @Kelemvor has with the checkbox values giving an error for the adaptive card. Has anyone found the answer to this yet? Should I make a separate post for this?

    @v-lin-msft  I have a form that someone submits.  All the fields in the form are regular text entries except one that is a checkbox of selections.  If I use flow and insert any of the text boxes, everything works fine.  As soon as I tell it to use the checkbox field, it dies with a simlar error to what I had originally.  Does the checkbox form field need to go into a specific type of container?

     

    Here's a screenshot of part of my flow.

    If I replace the "Details" item with the item from the checkbox, I get an error.  Maybe I can't use Textblock and need to use something else?

     

    THe error shows "Bad Request" and then:

    {
    "error": {
    "code": "MissingOrInvalidBotAdaptiveCardRequest",
    "message": "The specified Teams flowbot adaptive card request is missing or invalid."
    }
    }
     
    Thanks!

    Hi @Kelemvor,

    I have tested it like the screenshot shows, and it runs successfully. How about your Dynamic Content put in?

    @v-lin-msftOK, so one more thing.  One of the questions in my form is a checkbox where people can pick some options.  Is there any way to add that information into a card?  I tried using the Dynamic Content and adding that particular form field, but it causes the Flow to fail.  If I remove that field then the Flow works fine.

    OK, so I took the the one from the website and just changed the parts I needed and now it's working.  I guess there must have been a syntax problem in there somewhere.

     

    Last question I have is, is there any way to remove the thing at the bottom that says <my account> used Flow to automate this notification?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi @Kelemvor,

    I have tested the schema you provide on my side, it happened the same issue as you describe.

    Maybe there's something wrong with the format, I have a test run successfully by input the schema from the post, you can refer to it:

    Please have a try, hopes it can help you.
