Issue with ‘Follow up on a message’ Flow Template in Teams

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4

I’ve been using the ‘Follow up on a message’ flow template in Teams successfully for several months. However, in the past week, it has stopped working and fails on each run. The error message I receive is:

Check Flow Name: Ensure that the flow name is correctly specified and not left as <null>.

I’ve checked the flow name and it is correct. I haven’t made any amendments to the template. I’ve tried deleting and recreating the flow several times, and all connections are valid. I’ve also cleared the Teams cache, but the issue persists.

Any advice on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated, as this flow is incredibly useful.

Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
     
    I was able to duplicate the issue, so you are not alone - the flow is setup correctly and saves with no issues.  There's an issue with the teams connector and is the root cause.  These issues tend to resolve themselves over time; but I don't think there are any settings that you can adjust or editing the flow to resolve this.

    Thank you for your suggestion. I’ll wait for about a week or so and then attempt to recreate the flow.

    I also have this <null> error. It also is now an error on the MS Teams template flow for "Schedule a Reply".
