Add a row to excel table

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello,
I am creating a new Excel table in my flow, where the name of the table is transferred from Power Apps, so the name is dynamic. This is all working beautifully. However, when I then try to insert a new row in this newly created table, the error comes up:

"The request entity's media type 'text/plain' is not supported for this resource."

in the function "Add a new row" I use the same dynamic value for the name of the table as when I created the table. I have read that you are not allowed to use a dynamic value for the name in the "Add a new row" function, however there are numerous examples on the internet where it works for them. I have also tried to initialize a variable with the dynamic name and then use its output for the function "Add a new row", but without success.
Does anyone have a solution.
Thanks in advance.

    Hi @Anonymous,

    Do you want to add a row to excel table?

    Could you please tell me that if you want to update an Excel table or a Dataverse table?

     

    The "Add a new row" is an action for the Dataverse connector to add a new record.

    If you want to create a new record to an excel table, please use the "Add a row into a table".
