Getting Unauthorized error on flow bot Post a reply to a message V2

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 41

I had created a recurrence Flow to reply to an announcement message so it can bring the announcement to the front at the set time.

It worked perfectly this morning when I set it to happen every 2 hours.

However, after I change it to every 30 min, it stopped working.

The Run report shows that the Recurrence is okay, but the Post a reply to a message is giving the Unauthorized error Status code 401

Please help

    Hi @minniep 

     

    There might be a chance that the Teams Administrator settings does not allow the bot to post messages. Can you check that in the teams admin center and confirm? 

     

    Hope this Helps!

    I doubt ... as the reply was working in the morning until I changed the word in the reply from "Push" to "Bump"

    and I am not 100% sure if it is the word that caused it as I deleted the original Flow that I set up and test on the new one with "Bump" didn't work ..... then before I gave up I just thought whatsoever .... and put the reply msg back to "Push" ...... then the magic happened... the flow worked again.........................

    Try deleting the step and putting it back again. Sometimes MS does that after a release.
