Excel File Name Show Picker button not working in Chrome or Edge.
I added a Get Rows Action, but cannot select the file I want to use.
Clicking the "Show Picker" button does nothing at all.
Additional detail: File Picker works fine when editing an old flow that already had the Excel Get Rows action (created in October 2016), just not new flows.
If i save and close the flow. then come back to it, the file picker works. Still not working in new flow creation.
Hi Michowl,
Thanks for your feedback. According to your description, I try to create a flow with the action “Get rows” from Excel table. I found that when I create a new flow with this action, “Show Picker” button doesn’t work, but it works when I back to it after I saved and closed the flow.
I will report this issue from my side and back to you once I got any updates.
Best regards, Mabel Mao
Same issue for me in both Chrome and Edge. File picker does nothing. Both in Get Rows and Insert Rows actions.
This is an issue that we are aware of and the fix will be rolled out soon.
Thanks for reporting.
I test this issue on my side, and the “Show picker” button works fine in “Get rows” and “Insert rows” actions with Chrome, IE, and Edge.Could you please try with it and let me know if it also works on your side now?
Yes thanks, I do see that the issue has been resolved.
This is still not working for me....so I don't think it is quite resolved.
Also, when I try to use the dynamic content it is hit or miss. 3/4 of the time it doesn't work and selecting the attributes does nothing. If I keep playing with it, sometimes it will work all of a sudden for a bit.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide!
Barry
Hi Barry,
Could you provide the id of the flow having issues with the excel file picker? You can copy and paste the url of the flow designer page. It should look something like this: https://flow.microsoft.com/manage/environments/Default-72f988bf-86f1-41af-91ab-2d7cd011db47/flows/0d151387-1e8f-4311-9d45-caa3b0d4c918
Best,
Mick
@barrykohagan, you're right. I did notice today, that the file picker wasn't appearing.
However, unlike before, if I change focus to a different window, then click back to the Flow editor window, the file picker appears.
