the quotation mark is replaced with left/right double quotation mark

Posted on by 6

My issue is that my PVA returns the correct value of topics - sample value: 

{title: "Sharepoint", value: "Sharepoint"},{title: "Teams", value: "Teams"} - it is stored as string variable.

I would like to use it as a part of adaptive card (set in 'formula' mode): 

 choices: [                
       Topic.output
      ]

 

If the variable is displayed as message, the text is shown as {title: “Sharepoint”, value: “Sharepoint”},{title: “Teams”, value: “Teams”} - 

The quotation " mark (ascii 34) is replaced with left/right double quotation mark  - " !=“ or ” ;(

 

Any ideas how to solve it ?

    Hi @mazyd ,

     

    I've made a test for your reference:

    vbofengmsft_1-1710815975177.png

    {
     type: "AdaptiveCard",
     '$schema': "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json",
     version: "1.2",
     body: [
     {
     type: "Input.ChoiceSet",
     choices: Topic.Var2,
     placeholder: "Placeholder text",
     id: "1"
     },
     {
     type: "ActionSet",
     actions: [
     {
     type: "Action.Submit",
     title: "Submit",
     id: "2"
     }
     ]
     }
     ]
    }

    Result:

    Hi @v-bofeng-msft ,

     

    thank you for response.

    I provide with more details - my bot uses the Power Automate flow to get the list of the topics.

    The output from flow looks as presented: 2024-03-20_8-47-20.png

    If I try to display data I lost " and I see: “value here” - it cannot be interpreted as json ;(

    It looks like some internal mechanism replace " to  “value here”

    Hi @mazyd  ,

     

    I suggest that you format the data into a standard JSON string in the flow before proceeding with the next steps in PVA.

    Hi @v-bofeng-msft ,

    I played with your solution, but the adaptive card is not shown:

    1. Set variable: 2024-03-20_11-49-53.png
    2. Add the variable to adaptive card: 2024-03-20_11-51-14.png 
      1. JSON: 
        {
          type: "AdaptiveCard",
          version: "1.5",
          body: [
            {
              type: "TextBlock",
              text: " Form title",
              size: "Large",
              wrap: true,
              weight: "Bolder",
              style: "heading"
            },
            {
              type: "Input.ChoiceSet",
              id: "TopicVal",
              label: "Please select: ",
              style: "filtered",
              isRequired: true,
              errorMessage: "This is a required input",
              placeholder: "Please choose",
              choices: Topic.Var2
            }
          ],
          actions: [
            {
              type: "Action.Submit",
              title: "Done"
            }
          ]
        }
    3. The bot does not display the card: 2024-03-20_11-57-27.png

     

     

    Any ideas ?

    Hi @v-bofeng-msft 

    I added the option for parsing and received the error as follows:
