Flow not finding column name from list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by eriskedahl

I'm trying to create a flow that looks through my project list and adds a task to my planner so I can review the project 2 weeks in advance. 

This is what I get when I test the flow.

where I get the following error:

However, I know I'm spelling the column name correctly since I'm copying and pasting the value.

This is what my Get items looks like in the flow

Any help would be great!

    In the edit column, verify the internal name of the sharepoint column and use it in the Get items filter
