I have created a custom connector to wrap some of the ESRI ArcGIS REST API using the custom connector designer.

I have a basic GET request that tests fine in the custom connector, but when I use it in a flow I get an error:

The API 'arcgis-20online-5f2ae34c58bb758092-5f24bc1b30615444c5' returned an invalid response for workflow operation 'Search_-_Get_Users' of type 'OpenApiConnection'. Error details: 'The API operation 'Search_GetUsers' requires the property 'body' to be of type 'Object' but is of type 'String'.'

It sounds like your response is defined as JSON object but your API is probably returning string. Please change the response body type to string to resolve the issue.

Thanks @shmersh this was the right direction.
Whilst the response was actually JSON the header had "content-type": "text/plain;charset=utf-8" and therefore wasn't recognising the content as JSON.
