Flow used to work but

Hi guys,

 

We had a flow that read from a spreadsheet and then sent out emails.

 

Effectively, when people had undertaken enough courses and their details appeared a certain number of times in the spreadsheet, then they would be emailed (the emails happened at 3, 6 and 10 instances of them appearing on the excel spreadsheet). Funny thing is that when the person who made the flow left the department, everything stopped working (??!!). The flow and the related spreadsheet are still available to all of us but we can't seem to understand why it isn't working.

 

Just got the record, here is the error message we get:

 

Unable to process template language expressions in action 'Set_variable_workshopcount' inputs at line '0' and column '0': 'The template language function 'int' expects one parameter: the value that is to be converted to an integer. The function was invoked with '0' parameters. Please see https://aka.ms/logicexpressions#int for usage details.'.

 

Any ideas?

Many thanks

    Hi - would need to see the action Set_variable_workshopcount and opened up so can see what the input for it is.

     

    If you could open all the actions that would be ideal to get a better idea of what's going on.

    Hi Grant, thanks for getting back to me.

     

    Here's the set up of the flow as it stands at the moment. Let me know if you want me to open up some of the boxes:

    Apologies if it's not what you meant. Let me know whatever else is needed.

     

    Thanks again in advance.

    Are you able to post a screenshot of the flow to see exactly how it's working and try to identify the issue. Need to see what is updating the variable and why it's not getting a value.
