Error in Power Automate Desktop when filling out data in Inputs form (random error)

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 11
Good morning,
I'm writing because I've been experiencing issues with a desktop process in recent days.
This process reads specific data from an Excel file, creates a table in Power Automate, and then uses that table to connect to a back office (via a browser) to fill out a form in the system with that data.
This process needs to fill out the form multiple times (X number of rows in the Excel file). What’s happening now is that in some fields, when it iterates and fills out the Excel data, some values are incorrectly filled or truncated. For example, if a field should be completed with the value "ONLI," it only inputs "ONL."
The strange thing is that if the process iterates over the form about 70 times, it only makes this error around 5 times (the rest are filled correctly).
Could this be related to the recent update that was released a few days ago? I tried reconfiguring the events, but the error persists and is random (it doesn’t always happen with the same data/row).
Thank you very much for any help you can provide.

    Hey Hi,
     
    If you using Populate text field on webpage action to fill the Data.We have also faced the similiar issue in the past.
    Just try disabling the Populate text filed using Physical Keystrokes option in the action as shown in below image,it will populate the words correctly.
