Retrieving data from a Flow / Updating Flow problem

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 6

Hi,

I am using the "Respond to Power Apps" action and I am trying to send a string retrieved from a JSON back to a Canvas App. But I am not able to use this value on Power Apps. 

This is the step that is returning the value:

I believe I should be able to store the return in a variable using the Set function. But I am not seeing the "url" option when I try to retrieve the value:

And if I try to modify the Flow I get the error: "There was a problem adding your service. Please try again later.".

 

I already tried to return a string directly in the step instead of trying to retrieve from the JSON object but it didn't work either.


I also tried to store the string in a variable to return but it didn't work.

    I don't think the problem is returning the value.  I think the issue is how you are trying to use the returned value.  Try adding return.url to the Text field of a label and you should see the string being returned. You can't reference the url directly from OnSelect.
