Issues with running Office Scripts from Power Automate

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by CW-30072017-0 12
I'm trying to design some fairly basic flows that setup communications between OneDrive, SharePoint, and Excel. There are a couple of Office Scripts I inevitably always need to run in order to make it a functional closed loop automation. I have never once gotten Power Automate to run an excel script successfully - not one single time. Can anyone help me at least make a little headway in this issue?

    Your request for help is lacking a lot of information. Please provide more info such as the screenshot of a run history on the action that failed, the error message of the failure, the Office Script code itself and an explanation of what you are doing with the office script. 
     
    I have ran many Office Script via flow before and have no problem invoking it

    Here is one I was once working on and is incredibly simple, maybe you can help me with it. The idea for this is to simply automate some mouse clicks. It says it runs but nothing ever executes. This is a very common failure I experience (among others). Screenshots below:

    Show the edit mode of the Run script.
     
    Are you sure you are running the correct script?
    Are you sure you are running the script on the right file?

    Alright I figured out the issue (I think.) It's licensing. I don't have any sort of premium licensing, my access is shown below:
