I am trying to update the status to a value of passed for a particular value where the summary equals that of a user input value in Power App Screen. All the values are passing through the flow correctly but maybe I have something incorrect in the body as even after a success message, the value of the status remains the same

    Hi @hasahmad,

     

    Do you have docs or any name of this third-party API you are interacting with? This would be useful to help you out. 

     

    Generally speaking with PATCH request it is pretty common that the API requires different or more key/values in the Headers section of the request.

    @Expiscornovus yes I tried with and without. I am trying to update the values of a field on an external website which allows REST API connections. I can connect to it, read it, get its values passed for JSON parsing in Power Automate but Patch is not updating a particular field

    Hi @hasahmad,

     

    For what type of record are you trying to set the status?

     

    I see you used square brackets around the body payload. Have you tried it without the square bracket [] characters?
