Shared Flow can only be used by the author - Error 400 "The respone is not in a JSON format."

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 9

I have created an Flow that should mimic the reminder function of Slack within Teams.

Trigger: For a selected message in Teams

Logic: Post a message to Flow Bot and confirm, that the reminder was set + some things to delay the notification and get further info on the original message.

End: Post a notification to the initiator's feed

The Flow works perfect, when used by myself, but throws an error at the last step, when shared (execute only) or sent (full access) to another user. Even the first confirmation message (I'll remind you later about this message) is sent to the users Flow Bot chat. But the Feed notification at the end does always result in a 400 error.

Input of the last step (not working, executed by someone else):

    I'm facing the same issue. Have you managed to find a solution?

    Thanks.

    Yes, each client had to install the Power Automate App in their Teams client.
    We did this via an app policy over the Teams admin interface.
