JSON from Flow to PowerApps collection

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 19

Hello! I'm doing some testing and I'm having an issue returning a JSON value from flow into PowerApps. The data is returning to PowerApps but it is in the incorrect format. When using the 'Respond to PowerApps' action in Flow, the JSON data is returned as a string. I also tried using the 'Response' action instead, but it seems to be returning the data as an array. I have tried using the ParseJSON function but keep getting errors.

Here is an example of the JSON being outputted:

[
  {
    "a": "1",
    "b": "4",
    "c": "7"
  },
  {
    "a": "2",
    "b": "5",
    "c": "8"
  },
  {
    "a": "3",
    "b": "6",
    "c": "9"
  }
]
 
This is the JSON schema for the Response action:
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "targets": {
      "title": "targets",
      "x-ms-dynamically-added": true,
      "type": "string"
    }
  }
}

Any insight into what I am doing wrong will be greatly appreciated. I cannot seem to figure this out.

    Hi @alandilworth ,

     

    The JSON schema apparently doesn't match the JSON sample you have provided.
