Parse Json

Posted on by Ofrasson

I have the problem below to list information, despite the information from the developer's website, the error persists.

 

The 'content' property of actions of type 'ParseJson' must be valid JSON. The value provided cannot be parsed: 'Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: <. Path '', line 0, position 0.'.

    Hi @Ofrasson ,

     

    The ParseJSON action accepts only JSON inputs.

    The data input to the Parse JSON action seems to be in XML and not in JSON.

    It has to be converted to JSON and then used in the parse JSON action.

    Please refer:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/logic-apps/workflow-definition-language-functions-reference#xml

     

    Thanks and Regards,

    Vikas K
