Hi All,

I'm getting the below error when trying to set up an adaptive card to work with a dropdown.

BadRequest. The request failed. Error code: 'InvalidJsonInBotAdaptiveCard'. Error Message: 'Microsoft.Azure.ProcessSimple.Data.Entities.Exceptions.ProcessSimpleDataException: The specified Teams flowbot adaptive card request is missing or invalid. The tracking Id is '{0}'. ---> Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Unexpected end of content while loading JObject.

My message is set up as

"placeholder": ""
}
]
}
]
}
],
"actions": [
{
"type": "Action.Submit",
"title": "Submit"
}

I've had a look through and struggling to understand so need some other eyes on it. Please if anyone could help it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi @Carl1291,

It looks like you are missing at least one closing square bracket ] and curly bracket } after the submit action button. I am also not seeing any dropdown values in the json for the input.ChoiceSet (title and value properties for each option). But I am guessing you want to populate those values dynamically?

I would suggest to first start building a card with valid json before you add dynamic data to it.

Looking at your current json structure, the adaptive card would look something like below, correct?

You can test your json in the Adaptive Card designer:

https://adaptivecards.io/designer

{ "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json", "type": "AdaptiveCard", "version": "1.3", "body": [ { "type": "ColumnSet", "columns": [ { "type": "Column", "width": 2, "items": [ { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Workload Request Submitted", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Medium", "wrap": true, "style": "heading" }, { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Submitted By", "isSubtle": true, "wrap": true } , { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "", "isSubtle": true, "wrap": true, "size": "Default" } ] } ] }, { "type": "Container", "items": [ { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "", "wrap": true, "isSubtle": true }, { "type": "Input.ChoiceSet", "placeholder": "Placeholder text", "choices": [ { "title": "Office 365", "value": "Office 365" }, { "title": "Dynamics 365", "value": "Dynamics 365" }, { "title": "Azure Services", "value": "Azure Services" }, { "title": "Power Platform", "value": "Power Platform" } ] } ] } ], "actions": [ { "type": "Action.Submit", "title": "Submit" } ] }

Hi @Expiscornovus,

Thanks for the response. Yeah thats exactly what i am looking for. My dynamic variable i am looking to show in the drop down is going to be from a Microsoft List that can be updated as time goes on rather than updating the variable in this Json.

In my flow i have already pulled the data from the list using a Get Items so looking to integrate it in.

Thanks

Hi @Carl1291,

You could use the values from the Get Items and convert it into the right format for the choices array of your adaptive card. I would suggest to use a Select action for that. You will need title/value pairs per item.

Below is an example.

1. Add a Select after your Get Items.

a. Make sure you use the title and value keys.

b. Map it to whatever fields you want to use from your list

2. Add the outputs of the Select to the Adaptive card json in the choices array

a. Below is an example code snippet

{ "type": "Input.ChoiceSet", "placeholder": "Select an Engineer", "id": "choiceEngineers", "choices": @{body('Select')} }
