Hi,

I have build a simple app which should submit a new item in sharepoint and pass lastrecord's ID to do other business logic.

In an app, created a flow using Add Flow option.

Flow has type Instant and 'When Power Apps calls a flow (V2)' which has Parameter called ID in a Number format and ID passed to 'Get Item'.

But when I try to type flowname.run it doesn't show up up when I add another flow which doesn't have ID parameter passed does work fine. What am I missing?

Flow:

Error: 'Run' is an unknown or unsupported function in namespace 'CCFlow'.

Hi @Newbee32, you should call as

'PowerAppV2->Getitem'.Run(lastrecord.Id);

Please give the mentioned solution a try and let me know whether it works for you.

Changing name does work. But would like to understand why Power apps promoted Flow name as it's steps and didn't keep name as is!

Is there a better way to address this issue?

Hi @Newbee321,
I faced this issue, when i was creating a flow without specified name (the power automate auto generates the name example the text below the CCFlow ) and it gets attached to the app as old name. and even after we change the flow name (the first name would be fixed and gets connected to power apps as the same).

To Tackle this, we have to create a copy of existing flow with correct name as required and attach it and remove the old flow.

Please give the mentioned solution a try and let me know whether it works for you.
