Parsing an HTML Table from an email

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 64

Hello, 

I am trying to take rows from a  table that I receive from an email and upload those rows into a Sharepoint list. I am using the split function shown below in  Compose, however when I run the flow, I receive the following error: 

Unable to process template language expressions in action 'Compose' inputs at line '0' and column '0': 'The template language function 'split' expects its first parameter to be of type string. The provided value is of type 'Object'. Please see https://aka.ms/logicexpressions#split for usage details.'.

 

Not sure what I need to do to fix this error. Any suggestions?
