Planner - Update task details error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 13

Hi,

 

I am building a simple flow of creating a task, then updating the description. I use create a task first, then I use update a task using the dynamic ID and then add some description.

 

I left the reference and checkbox fields blank but I am getting this error.

 

ResponseSwaggerSchemaValidationFailure. The API 'planner' returned an invalid response for workflow operation 'Update_task_details_2' of type 'OpenApiConnection'. Error details: 'The API operation 'UpdateTaskDetails_V2' requires the property 'body/references' to be of type 'Array' but is of type 'Object'.'

The flow still runs but there is a error at this step.  Any help?

 

Thanks,

Sam

    Hi @SamOuyang :

    I’ve made a similar test but did not encountered the problem you mentioned.

    My flow

    The Result

    According to the error message you provided, it seems that the cause of the error is that the data type of the references parameter is wrong.

    Could you tell me:

    Have you modified the "Reference" parameter of "Update task details 2"?

    For now, I suggest you delete ‘Update task details 2’ first and then recreate an ‘Update task details’ action.

    Best Regards,

    Bof

    I am experiencing the same issue as the original poster.  I have recreated the Update task details step and made sure not to touch the reference section of it.

    Thank you for all the help guys, I didn't expect a reply that fast.  I am going to talk to a Microsoft Engineer today.  If I find anything I will let you guys know.

     

    Best,

    just to add a little more, I am also getting the same error when using Get task details as well.

    almost seems like they changed something on the planner API and has not caught up in the connector for power automate.

    Hi Everyone,

     

    Solution is here!

     

    So I talked to the Microsoft Rep and he didn't know why this was happened either.  Low and behold, today for some reason the Icon for planner changed to the new icon. (I am in Government version btw).  And everything works now.

    The old icon is a group of people with a checkmark and the new icon is the Kaban board.  So, for some reason the icons changed overnight and now everything is working.

    I just dont' understand why it doesn't work as intended being that the apps, data, and connectors are all MS.
