Posted on by Thinzar

I have created a flow uploading the file attachments together with its name to the Dataverse table. However, this error occurs. Is there anyway can I solve this?

Thanks.

Hi @Thinzar ,

It looks like there are two wrong parameters.

Please provide a name instead of file content for the file name parameter.

And please provide the record's GUID in the 'row id' parameter.

Thanks, @v-xiaochen-msft ,
But, I have tested according to the way you suggested, using GUID column name of the table and separate file name and content for data adding. However, the same error keeps occuring.
The Copilot suggested like this. How should I proceed?

@v-xiaochen-msft ,
Could you please tell me how could I get the correct record GUID like the long characters you inserted in your sample.
Btw, Thanks for your sample.

Hi @Thinzar ,

Ofc, so if you want to update a record when the name is '13-2', you should use e7cde234-3088-ee11-8179-002248ec6139.

Each table has an identifier column. Usually, it is the same as the table name.

Ahh, I understand with the long codes for row id, @v-xiaochen-msft
So, seeing this, if there is anyway to add a new row containing the attachments directly to the dataverse table?
My scenario is like this, adding file attachments to a new row and not the existing row. and the id of the row is changing and not the one which can be filled directly from the automate flow.
