Failing to process response from custom SQL-query

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Tim92 9

Hello experts,

 

I am new to PowerApp-Development. I have tried to build a flow which does the following:

1. Take parameters from app

2. Invoke SQL-Query to get some data (Only one integer called score)

3. Return data to PowerApp for further processing

 

The query is running, if I test the flow, data will be delivered from Database as requested:

I now need to get it into my app for further processing, this is the part I can't figure out.

I tried to add response to the flow and tried to fetch the body from step above as stated in tutorial from Mr. Dang (https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Webinars-and-Video-Gallery/Type-and-Run-a-SQL-Query-inside-PowerApps/td-p/113062).

I also edited the correct JSON-schema:

Unfortunately when I run it, answer will just contain the plain String I configured above:

How do I configure this flow to output the JSON-data so that I can reuse it? It is displayed in testing already.

Thank you in advance!

    For anyone who may be struggling with this, I found the error:

    Text in response was wrong. To reference the body it will need the step name, blanks needs to be replaced by underscores!

     

    Step name is "SQL-Abfrage ausführen (V2)" so text in response step needs to be "body('SQL-Abfrage_ausführen_(V2)').ResultSets.Table1.

    It is also possible to rename the step to avoid such complicated names. Mine was generated by PowerApps.
