Hi Folks,

Running Power Automate Desktop Flow on Desktop runs successfully, Running Cloud call to PAD flow fails, some composed parameters appear suffixed with \n

RAW Cloud Parameters -

"host": {
"connectionReferenceName": "shared_uiflow",
"operationId": "RunUIFlow_V2"
},
"parameters": {

"item/MCYY": "2020\n",
"item/INFOLDER": "TEST\n",

"error": {

"code": "Folder.RetrieveFilesError",

"message": "Problem while executing action 'GetFiles'. Can't retrieve list of files in folder C:\\Users\file-path built is correct up to this point(single parm) \\TEST\n."

}

Native Default parameterms set in PAD flow:

Cloud Parms are grabbed from a trigger email body text using compose steps:

Compose - length(body('Html_to_text'))

Compose1 - add(indexOf(body('Html_to_text'),'Process_Folder:'),16)

Compose3 - indexOf(body('Html_to_text'),'Process_Year:')

Compose4 - substring(body('Html_to_text'),outputs('Compose_2'),sub(outputs('Compose_3'),outputs('Compose_2')))

Compose5 - add(indexOf(body('Html_to_text'),'Process_Year:'),14)

Compose6- indexOf(body('Html_to_text'),'Exclude_String:')

Compose7- substring(body('Html_to_text'),outputs('Compose_5'),sub(outputs('Compose_6'),outputs('Compose_5')))

Compose8- add(indexOf(body('Html_to_text'),'Exclude_String:'),16)

Compose9 - indexOf(body('Html_to_text'),'END')

Compose10 - substring(body('Html_to_text'),outputs('Compose_8'),sub(outputs('Compose_9'),outputs('Compose_8')))

Cloud flow Run output shows parameters as expected -

But RAW data shows suffix \n

How to fix/interpret suffixed raw \n error in the constructed get files search file path built using Compose steps..?

"error": {

"code": "Folder.RetrieveFilesError",

"message": "Problem while executing action 'GetFiles'. Can't retrieve list of files in folder C:\\Users\file path built is correct up to this point(single parameter) \\TEST\n."

}

Is this a control character set issus or text/numeric conversion issue? or something else...

Any help/advice would be very much appreciated...

Thanks,

Clive
