Environment Variables in Power Automate Cloud

Posted on by DK-17121626-0 2
Hi,

I see the environment variables being created in solutions of power automate cloud with json type is allowing any datatype of variable to be saved in default value of it.
Can Microsoft look into this and restrict the other data types being saved in it or have a proper format of json rule embedded to the environment variable of json type.

Regards,
David

    The Power Apps Ideas forum is the better place to post that. Microsoft takes a look at the most requested features and puts them in the roadmap. This forum is more for getting help from the community. Let me know if you post it, I would upvote it!
