Bad Request - Error in query syntax

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6

Hi, 

 

I'm building a flow which first filters a dataverse table and applies a condition to check if todays date minus 60 days is the same as a date entered in the table when an assessment took place.  If it is and email reminder is sent.  What I would like to do is then update the dataverse table with the date the email is sent.  However, each time I try I receive 

 

{
  "error": {
    "code": "0x80060888",
    "message": "Bad Request - Error in query syntax."
  }
}
 
Here's a picture of the flow:

Within the "Update a row" I selected the table and the row ID to be updated and entered the following expression to capture the date:  formatDateTime(convertFromUtc(utcNow(), 'Eastern Standard Time'), 'yyyy-MM-dd').

The inputs are correct but the error appears on the outputs.  Any ideas how I can resolve?

    Hi @Jbrooks78 ,

     

    Your expression looks fine, so I believe that your problem is probably on the reference to the table record to be updated. I see that you are using the 'ID' dynamic content in 'Row ID', however you should be using the GUID of the table, which usually matches to your table's name. You can identify it by checking the property description (it must contains 'Unique Identifier for entity instances'):

    Let me know if it works for you or if you need any additional help!
