Changed Sharepoint column makes sharepoint new item trigger fail

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 23

Hello,

having a long flow that uses "When a (Sharepoint) Item is created" of List A as trigger, I needed to change a sharepoint column "Product" in that list from "Choice" to "Text"(single line).

Now, when a new item is created in that list, the flow fails immediately with the error

'The API operation 'GetOnNewItems' requires the property 'body/value/0/Product' to be of type 'Object' but is of type 'String'.'

I understand where the error is coming from, but is there a way to update the flow using the updated schema?
I hesitate to created the whole flow from scratch, just want to make it pull the updated column information.

thanks
Stefan

    @Stefan68 

    Have you tried simply editing and saving the Flow?

    If that didn't work, edit the Flow and reselect the list or library (you may need to select another list/library and then switch back to the one you want).

    thanks Scott, actually that was too easy,
    load different SP site & list, then going back to the original one and save was the solution
