Changes in dealing with excel data?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 74

Some time ago some Power Automate flows failed. When I analyzed it it seems that the transformation form an excel date number to an actual date was "broken". For some time it seems that this transformation wasn't needed anymore (what would be great 😉 ) .
I changed my flows, but approximately one week later this wasn't working anymore and I had to add this transformation step again.

Does somebody know what is happening?

    Hi @bgsca,

     

    This change was due to a regression bug.  Microsoft rolled it back on 1/21/2021.

    Please see the comments of the Blog:
