Posted on by Lukasj 19

Hello,

 

I am trying to retrieve array from power automate flow through action respond. But when I try to load response to collection i got following error: expected object got array.

ClearCollect(colDataRows,RetrieveRecords.Run("locationA"))

 

My schema for response activity: 

{
  "type": "array",
  "items": {
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
      "DocumentNo": {
        "type": "string"
      },
      "LocationCode": {
        "type": "string"
      },
      "CityCode": {
        "type": "string"
      }
    },
    "required": [
      "DocumentNo",
      "LocationCode",
      "CityCode"
    ]
  }
}
 
Body of the request:
[
  {
    "DocumentNo": "240423-1257-LC4001",
    "LocationCode": "LC4001",
    "CityCode": ""
  },
  {
    "DocumentNo": "240423-1257-LC4001",
    "LocationCode": "LC4001",
    "CityCode": ""
  }
]
