Error message when adding the output of Compose to Excel table: 'The API operation does not contain a definition for parameter 'column name'.'

Hello,

 

I'm trying to create a flow that triggers when flagging an email, and then write the direct link of the email to an Excel sheet.

I was able to use two Compose steps to generate the URL, and when I tested those steps, the URL works great:

However, when I try to add the same output to an Excel row, I get the error message: Flow save failed with code 'WorkflowOperationParametersExtraParameter' and message 'The API operation does not contain a definition for parameter 'item/URL of task.email'.'.

How should I fix this?

 

Thank you in advance!

    Hi @julis 

     

    I guess if you have deleted or altered the name of a column in the excel table, then pls remove its assignment or mapping from the "Add a row into a table" action. I would suggest reloading the flow and you could remove the values assigned to the deleted column. After identifying the column save the flow & retest it.

     

    If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.

     

    Thanks

    I tried that but it didn't really solve it - I ended up creating a whole new table just to be sure, thank you!
