Error in fetching file name through dynamic content

Posted on by 8

Hi 

 

Please help me in my issue. 

 

I wanted to create a power automate flow to alert me whenever someone modifies any file in my sharepoint folder. I expect the name of the file and the user who updated the file in an email. 

 

However, when I create the work flow and try to access the file name using Dynamic content and save the work flow, the name changes to ']}. The same is appearing in my final email output. 

 

Screen1 :  I am trying to access name using Dynamic content

Screen 2: I added the name varaiable to my email template

Screen 3: After saving the workflow, the filename variable changes to ']}.

    Hi @regupathy,

     

    This probably isn't much help, but I've generally had a lot of issues with the new power automate editor view.

    If you try to use the old editor and save it, is it able to save without removing the original dynamic content?

    Thank you James. I am pretty much new with power automate. How to access old editor?

    You should see New Designer on the top right of your flow editor:

    Switch the toggle and it should switch over to the old editor.
