Error Action 'Update_Excel_ failed

Posted on by Frans85 4

Hi all...my flow starts to have an error message in the last 5 hours

Anything is normal previously, and the other branch is still giving a normal output

The error message is related to update Excel file task

Is there any way to check whether my flow is error, or something happened with the Microsoft 365 (connection, server or else)?

Below is the screenshot on the output of update excel task

    Hi @Frans85 ,

     

    From the main screen, click on Connections in the left menu navigation and see if you need to reauthenticate your connection.

    Hi @trice602 

    I have checked the connection part; all is marked with green checkmark and no need to reauthenticate

    Are there any other part that need to be checked or whether there was a problem with MS Server?

    Hi @Frans85 !

     

    The 504 Gateway Timeout error is an HTTP status code that means that one server did not receive a timely response from another server that it was accessing while attempting to load the web page or fill another request by the browser.

    Please resubmit the request and try it again.
