Because I can't get my column updated with api rest.

Posted on by 218

I don't understand why I can't get my column updated with api rest.
below the capture of the flow

MAJ_ANC = text column

CLoture_instruction = date column

The flow runs correctly but the columns remain empty

An idea ?

    Hi @Ulysse4733 ,

     

    (1) Make sure you are using the internal name of the columns in the HTTP request

    🔍How to find the internal name of a SharePoint column

     

    (2) Check the Uri

    I have the follow sample code working (my regional settings are UK):

    (3)  Please check the runtime Output section of the HTTP action for any errors:

    OK, thanks,
    I had this error code because of the format. I had read elsewhere that the month had to be put first. it's not true

    What about the concat column?(the second point  update a column with concat('text',dynamic fields)

    Hi   @Ulysse4733 

     

    (1) Please share the value of:

    Snag_22f29689.png

     

    (2) Please remove the '?' QUESTION mark from the expression, then re-run the flow to see if it generates an error message. Please share any error messages.

     

    The expression is generating a null or empty value:

    outputs(Créer_un_élémen_dans_registre_ANC_(CR)')?['body/ID_x0020_ANC']))

     

     

    When using the [BRACKET] notation with a QUESTION mark, if there is no value to assign to a key (.e.g.  ['body/ID_x0020_ANC']) it will be treated as null .

    For more info about this, please see How to query JSON data using JSON notation with Power Automate

    If I remove the question mark here is the error

    I am therefore in the case stated at the end of your article (very well by the way). But I don't quite understand. the ID_ANC column does exist in my list

    Please examine and post the content of outputs('Créer_un_élémen_dans_registre_ANC_(CR)')

     

    This is the variable you are using to reference body/ID_x0020_ANC .

    When I create an item in my B list, I have a column (ANC ID) itself filled in from a feed. I want to retrieve its value to put it in the MAJ_ANC column of my list A. But I have to do "a get the properties" to be able to retrieve it because when creating the element in list B this ID_ANC column is empty ...
    thank you I learned a lot thanks to you, especially by reading your post and your advice
