Flow stopped working - error message relates to an array and value type null

Hi ALl,

 

My flow just stopped working.  I received the following explanation when I went into the flow and tried to trouble shoot but it has not worked.  I am unsure why it stopped working as no details have changed.  What do I have to do to get this back up and running.

    Hi @LM123,

    If you are not sure which field is empty, you need to type all this out.

    THanks Qi, do I need to type all this out as it does not come up as an option and cannot cut and paste.

    if(equals(outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/rfd513626b03b41fd873c992d83806885'],null),'N/A',outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/rfd513626b03b41fd873c992d83806885'])

    Hi Qi,

     

    I dont know where to put your formula.  I am not from an IT background so not sure where it is meant to go.

     

    Any guidance.

    Hi @LM123,

    Have you tried my formula?

    Use the 

    coalesce(<DynamicContent_ResponseDetails>,'N/A')

    Or:

    if(equals(<VALUE TO TEST>,null),'N/A',<DynamicContent_ResponseDetails>)

    @v-qiaqi-msft  - this is my approval:

    Hi @LM123,

    Could you please show me how you configure your approval?

    I think there is no null value in your response details.

     

    If you use a value in a field that might have a null value you can use coalesce to replace it with an empty string.

    coalesce(outputs('valueyouwant'),'N/A')
