I'm creating a custom connector from an OpenApi file and when I test an operation (GetAd)
I am getting a Schema Validation error
Two of my operations work but four do not
The two that work do not expect parameters in the path. The other four do.
I've searched this forum as well as Google searches but have been unable to find the issue.
The custom connector was created from an OpenApi file. The swagger follows.

If anyone has any suggestions as to what the issue may be please respond.

Believe it or not, I had the same error and the request was just fine. I had a two value response in the Content-Type header on the body (because that is what matched the message body header in the actual response)
I highly recommend just making Content-Type Application/Json as the only response body header, if applicable and ignore the rest. Use the results to build the schema in the editor but don't 'overwhelm' the wizard.
This Custom Connector wizard needs a lot of work to eliminate bugs.
Hello again,
Since the "Update connecor" fix was not working for me I played a little while with the security part of the connector scaffolding. I changed "Clé API" for "API Key" as a api-key label. It was not changed inside the Swagger text but when I updated the connector everithing was working fine. I do suspect there's a formatting bug occurring when saving modified Swagger.
Anyway, I am a happy connector creator now!

Hello,
I have exactly the same problem when issuing a POST command from a Power Apps custom connector. It is used to send a semantic query and works great from POSTMAN. When I try to TEST the connector I get a 403 message with a header whithout any interesting information and Ă mismatch object/string notification. Here's the Swagger:

I had exactly the same problem, and the "fix" was the same 🤷‍
Hi @rogersonra ,
Just wondering if you are able to resolve this issue ? I have created a custom connector and when i "Test" , I get the error in Schema Validation saying " Property "" type mismatch, Expected: "array", Actual: "string" ".
I have tried creating the custom connector by
a. Importing a postman v1 collection
b. Exporting an API directly from APIM into Power APps environment.
Both these custom connectors give the same error upon "Testing". Any help is highly appreciated.
PS: Already tried adding https://powerapp.microsoft.com in the allowed origins in CORS policy of APIM
Thank you!
Thanks for replying @rohsh354,
When you say "Please check the parameters and its values which are being returned and its data type." you're referring to the the Body in the Response correct?
If I call getad using postman and the same parameters
an object is returned.
Shouldn't the Response body in the connector be returning an object as well if both postman and powerapps are based on the same swagger file (which they are)?
Thanks,
rogersonra
Hello,
Type value mismatch usually means that property is defined as object, but the default value is being passed as string.
Please check the parameters and its values which are being returned and its data type.
