The function 'Run' has some invalid arguments with SharePoint upload.

Hi everyone, I kinda need support here. 

After many attempts, I've been trying to get the following OnSubmit to work:
Code:

UploadFileOnSharepoint.Run(
{
FileName: First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Name,
FileContent: First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Value
}
);


I have the following inputs in my automate flow:

- FileName  (Takes in the file name)

- FileContent (takes in the files to upload on Sharepoint)

 

Now my problem here is I keep getting the following error when using that code with a button. 

So the idea here is to upload files and a flow saves them to SharePoint. However, I've been battling with this after a few code refactors.

    Have you added the flow to your app? Try clicking the Power Automate icon, and selecting “Add flow”, and select the flow you’ve created.

    Hi @Siziwe ,

     

    Please try this:

     

    FlowName.Run(
     {
     file: {
     name: First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Name,
     contentBytes: First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Value
     }
     },
     First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Name
    )

     

     

    Best regards,

    Hi @Siziwe ,

     

    Try clicking the button to check if the flow can run.

    It's not running. 

    Tested on automate and the workflow works as it should. However, on powerapps it's not

    Hi @Siziwe ,

     

    Do you mean that there is still an error on formula and flow can't be triggered by button? Could you please show some screenshots?

    Please let me know if I misunderstand something.

    As it standards, I have this basic UI that supports a basic submission. The button I'm using is the "send" one. However, if I click it. It's not triggering the flow. 

    If I trigger the flow on power automate then it runs as it should. You asked me to test with the code you supported with and I did (on powerapps) however, it's not triggering the flow. 

    There is still an error in the formula:

    Hi @Siziwe ,

     

    After my testing, I guessed that this might be caused by the order of the values in the formula, trying to adjust the order of the two values in the formula.

    FlowName.Run(
     First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Name,
     {
     file: {
     name: First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Name,
     contentBytes: First(DataCardValueUpload.Attachments).Value
     }
     }
    )
