Syntax for Type array In the Schema Property area

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello,

 

I have a custom connector. I have imported a GET sample like: “https://api.mydomain.com/routing/v1/routes?waypoints=49.0133618,8.4277972&waypoints=48.8950289,8.6715602”. I get the parameter “waypoints” with Type “string”, but I need the Type “array”.

 

I changed the type of “waypoints” to “array”. When I try to test the connector, it does not work, because I do not know the syntax, how to enter a value for an array of waypoints as a parameter.

 

I checked your page https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/custom-connectors/define-blank, but there is no explanation how to use the type “array”.

 

Can you please give me an example?

 

Thank you.

    Thank you for your answer, but I cannot find anything on that page, which has something to do with my problem.

     

    Again: I need an example for the Syntax for Type array In the Schema Property area for e.g. for two waypoints to test the action.

     

    Here is what I´m doing:

    In the custom connector I create a new action “CalculateRoute”.

    Then I click on “Import from example” and with Verb GET and example https://api.mydomain.com/routing/v1/routes?waypoints=49.0133618,8.4277972&waypoints=48.8950289,8.6715602 I got the action and the parameters.

    In the Schema Property area I changed the Type “string” to “array” for the parameter “waypoints”.

    I test the action “CalculateRoute” and I type something like “{[49.0133618,8.4277972],[48.8950289,8.6715602]}” for waypoits:

    I try a lot of things, but I get two kinds of errors:

    1. Parameter is wrong

    2. The second parameter is missing, if I type: “49.0133618,8.4277972”
