"Type is required" error when setting up an RSS flow to a channel

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Trying to set an RSS When a feed item is published -> Alert the Team.  Seems straightforward to set it up, I fill in all the forms, and then when I attempt to save, I get a new error saying 'Type is Required' but there's no place to set a type.  I've tried different feeds and diff channels but get the same error each time.

Alert the team (1)

'Type' is required.

    Hi @jakell64 ,

     

    Could you provide a full screenshot of Flow configuration?

    I'm not sure which action you are using and the details of the configuration, it's hard to reproduce similar errors.

    Please provide more details and we would provide proper workaround for you.

     

    Best Regards,

    Sure.  Here's a picture of the forms and the error. 

    The "RSS feed news to Teams" is one of the featured flows that comes up on the initial Flow link within Teams.

    Hi @jakell64 ,

     

    Thanks for your reply.

    I did the test on my side and it was the same mistake.

    Alert the team action is actually Post a message action. You could delete Alert the team action, add Post a message action and reconfigure it, and the error will disappear.

    The reason may be that Teams connector has recently updated some features, so it affects the use of this template.

    Please take a try again.

     

    Best Regards,
