Hello,
 
I am trying to update teh Sharepoint items after getting the output from Excel item but getting this error
 
{
    "Req": "168076",
    "PMno": 90159,
    "StartDate": 45551,
    "ExtendedDate": 45500,
    "Movetohire": 45501,
    "Division": "Chief Operating Officer 710377",
    "OL4": "SrVP and Chief Nursing Officer 711045",
    "OL5": "Nursing 600421",
    "OL6": "Nursing Resource Pool 600535",
    "OL7": "",
    "L8Name": "",
 
This is the Excel output and below is the split statement which worked Before but now throwing an error
 
split(split(string(body('FilterExcelItem')),',')[0],':')[1]
 
Now i am getting this error
Unable to process template language expressions in action 'Update_item' inputs at line '0' and column '0': 'The template language function 'split' expects two parameters: the string to split as the first parameter, the separator as the second parameter. The function was invoked with '1' parameter(s). Please see https://aka.ms/logicexpressions#split for usage details.'.

    How are you getting the data from Excel?   I am trying to figure out why you can't reference a column from Dynamic properties.
    What column in Excel are you trying to reference - there is an easier way to do your Split using the column name.
     
    Can you post a screen shot of your Flow?

    Excel i am reading from the Inbox email they receive and then running excel to convert into table then comparing columns with sharepoint if duplicates need to replace columns.
