Parsing JSON Issue

I found this great video by Shane Young called Power Automate SharePoint Groups with flow

He shows how to grab the emails out of a SharePoint group.

When I get to the part to parse the JSON, when I paste the 'body' into the expression, what I get is different from what Shane gets in the video. I get @{body('Send_an_HTTP_request_to_SharePoint_3')} but Shane gets @{outputs('Send_an_HTTP_request_to_SharePoint_3')}

Not sure why mines starts with body @{body.... and not @{outputs

Any idea why this is happening? It's been driving me crazy since last week.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Re: Parsing JSON Issue

Hi @theisogunro,

The body is the shorthand for the body field of the outputs.

This is shorthand

body('Send_an_HTTP_request_to_SharePoint_3')

for this:

outputs('Send_an_HTTP_request_to_SharePoint_3')?['body']
