Every time i save my changes, the page refreshes and my changes disappear. I guess it doesnt like Topic.Transcript by itself. If i put it within brackets however and with a key (Topic.Transcript as value) then no problems. So it seems to be a type conversion issue between trying to set record variable as json object. How can i convert this variable to json? the schema of the variable is as follow:

kind: Record

properties:

activities:

type:

kind: Table

properties:

I think it's "just" a UI issue. If you peek at the YAML code for the topic, you can see the request body is populated with whatever formula you assigned in the UI, and based on my tests, the call executes successfully.

I think you can raise a case with support regarding the UI - Get Help + Support in Power Platform - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn

Here is the code for my topic:

kind: AdaptiveDialog beginDialog: kind: OnRecognizedIntent id: main intent: triggerQueries: - http actions: - kind: SetVariable id: setVariable_pgxUkP variable: Topic.body value: "={key:\"value\"}" - kind: HttpRequestAction id: syBaJ9 url: https://myurl.com body: kind: JsonRequestContent content: =Topic.body
