Error when using FinOpsInput in LookUps to FinOps entities

Posted on by DegvertDynamics

Since we currently only get one input parameter from embedded PowerApps in Finance & Operations I am using that value in LookUps to retrieve additonal information.
This works very well. How-ever I'm getting the attached error when running the app from FinOps. Everything is working as I expect it too but the error is shown at start.

The error is not always showing when previewing from the make.powerapps.com but it will always show when starting it from FinOps and I have one or more LookUps to FinOps entities using the FinOpsInput variable.

My OnStart is set to
If(!IsBlank(Param("EntityId")), Set(FinOpsInput, Param("EntityId")), Set(FinOpsInput, ""));

As I said all the data is fetched as I would expect but the error is shown when starting.
Any ideas?

The requested operation is invalid. Server Response: An error has occurred. Object reference not set to an instance of an object. clientRequestId: ee9bca29-a730-4830-xxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi,

Yes that was the first thing I looked into. How-ever when looking into it at that time I was convinced I only received the error for LookUps referencing my text inputs.

Thanks for pointing this one out again... it's working lovely now.

For others needing more clarification I'm adding below and it will no longer cause the error message.

If(!IsBlank(FinOpsInput), LookUp(Source, Condition , Result), "No FinOps Input")
