Search for User (V2) with variable

Posted on by IncursioML1

I'm probably missing something here but I have a variable that's a string type from a prior step called 'NameVariable'

to which I'm passing to the Search for users (V2), however results are coming up null.

But when I hard code 'John Doe' into the search it works. What am I missing here? Do I need to convert the variable that's a string to something else? Compose also doesn't work.

Could you show Search for User (V2) with variable in edit mode?

It's coming from the text body of an HTML email.

Here's the two outputs if using a variable vs. hardcode in the output.
There's probably another step I have to do due to the HTML email conversion to text in which the variable is using the final output as a string.

Output of Variable
"searchTerm": "@variables('FinalBuyerName')",
"searchTerm": "\n\nJohn Doe\n\n",

Output of HarcCode
"searchTerm": "John Doe",

I'm seeing the same thing, When hard coded, the search string works fine, but when passed from a variable, its Null. Any idea please?
