I am the OP. I see that there is a script error. It seems like it is being caused by the first data item in the list which has the word "Calendar" Why is this causing an error and how do i prevent this from causing an error

OP here again. The updated script runs without error, but it's not getting a match. The ActiveMonth output is None. It should match on 'Deceber, because that is in the input list.

Scripts in PAD only accept strings as inputs. Your list is not actually interpreted as a list by your Python script. It would be better to join it using Join text in your flow, pass it in as a string and then split it into list in the Python script itself.

Hi @Agnius I didnt know that. I dont recall seeing it in the documention. That is very helpful but my flow/script still doesnt work. Now that I have taken your input into account, I'm thinking the problem is occurring before the script. However I will regard this post as closed and solved and post a new topic now that I know I have to pass string into the Python script.
