Hey there,

 

I'm getting the error to "Enter a valid json" on a flow which works exactly the way I want it to, but I'm unable to change the email recipients as a result of this error.

    I faced the same issue until I realized that I have to add "double quotes" to both start and the end of the code.
     
     
    But the craziest part is that you will have to add them each time when you are testing the flow! No solution for that!

    @Anonymous  - Were you ever able to fix this issue? I'm having the same issue.

    Hi, that doesn't achieve what I am trying to accomplish with this flow. I would like to send 1 email with a list of items from sharepoint that when you click the name it takes you to the item in question. By doing it the way you suggest I have a result that looks like "Name of the item: Link to item" for multiple items.

    The select action is used to pull values out of an array to build a new Key/value based array.  Click the icon to the right of the blank to switch it back to a set of fields that specify the key and the value.  Put what you have now on the value side and give it a name that you can use to reference it in the future.  The entry setup you have now requires adding the key and value in JSON format.  That's why its giving you the error.
