Approval Workflow - GraphUserDetailByEmailMultipleFound'. Error Message: 'Found multiple matching users

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello 

I have a basic approval workflow , getting the Approver's UPN and then triggering email for approval . But the flow errors out with the message -  GraphUserDetailByEmailMultipleFound'. Error Message: 'Found multiple matching users 

I cannot fix the Active Directory issues . Is there a workaround to fix this ? Thank you !

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    Could you please share a screenshot of the configuration of your flow?

    The error message told that the flow found multiple matching users, please enter the email address separated by a semicolon to see if the issue still exists.

    the expaned one with UPN , where the approver is determined (one person) to approve the request per candidate . The hardcoded email addess would need to be checked up . Shall come back on that in a while

    thanks Alice , tried to use "Mail " in Assigned To and re-submitted the errored one .No luck . Still getting the same error message 

     

    BadRequest. The request failed. Error code: 'GraphUserDetailByEmailMultipleFound'. Error Message: 'Found multiple matching users ('82673d8b-1e8c-4fb0-920b-4869817032c5, 62bbd149-c53b-433c-b01c-1ac6a3c782bd') for abcdef@email.com

     

    Is there a way to get one ID , and I am assuming it is the AAD sync issue , Kindly let know 

     

    regards

    Shan

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    I have made a test on my side and many users has the same issue as yours:

    https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/GraphUserDetailByEmailMultipleFound-Error-Message-Found-multiple/td-p/117453

     

    Please make sure the email address has the unique GUIDs.

     

    Best regards,

    Alice

    thanks Alice ,I tried the workaround mentioned before posting .. but no luck , Is there a way , may be a dynamic formula workaround that can select the unique GUIDs for the workflow to work and is this issue because of the AAD sync issue ?

     

    Is there any workaround that can get around this ? Thank you once again 

     

    regards

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    Sorry for I couldn't offer any workaround for this issue.

    I suggest that you could contact Microsoft flow for this issue and they may have the workaround.
