I have an excel that I need to use to update an SQL DB. Everything looks good I thought until I get some rows where there is a .2 or something in it.
The Column in the DB is set to int, the excel is a general Table.
Most likely the value is not matching the SQL data type. The value has to be an integer only. It seems that your Excel value is a string.
The excel is set as number.
Check:
The value is being read from Excel is a float not integer?
The value is enclosed in double quotes "1.2". Is the value being read from Excel as string and not a float value?

I changed the sql column to float and still have the issue
Is error message exactly the same as before?
yes same error.
Correct me if I am wrong. I feel like the SQL column data type is an integer, and that has to be changed to float for it to work
Can you delete the Update Row action, then re-create it from scratch?
I guess after I made the SQL change it needed some time before Power Automate noticed the change. Thanks it's now working.
