Add Member to Team failing with Forbidden, but it actually actually succeeds

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 33

I have a flow which has worked for months, and just recently the Add Member to Team step is failing with Forbidden.

But the user is actually added to the team, so I'm very confused. The flow then fails and subsequent steps don't run.


Any suggestions?

}
}

    Hi @askpatrickw 

    Could you try to use another connection to Teams or remove it and add a new one?

    Hope it helps!

    No this did not work.

     

    I went to the connection, selected Switch Account, use my account again and it still failed the same way.

    I have the same problem and this script is important for me.

    I have a support call with @v-nathantr next week for this. I'll post back any outcomes.

    @askpatrickw same here, any update on this?

    No fix yet @Robin1988 ... But they're working on it.
    NOTE: Removing and re-adding the connection did not fix this.

    We found a workaround... I put a 10 minute delay before the step to add to a Teams Group. Not ideal especially since it worked for months, but its OK for now.

    Just want to thank you for this solution. I gave up about a month ago on this, as I couldn't get it to work!


    Dropped it to 5 minutes and it seemed to work as expected. Thanks again.

    I managed to get a workaround this without using delay by using azure adding user to group.

    Will this delay also prevent this 403 error code?

     

    "body": {
    "statusCode": 403,
    "message": "Out of call volume quota. Quota will be replenished in 00:50:45."
