I am trying to get a flow to work with my app and I am noticing a strange behavior, i.e.: my flow should require a number input and, instead, requires a text input. I removed and re-added the flow to no avail. All inputs in the flow are required. Never experienced anything like this. Is it a service disruption occurring today?
This is a known issue with the Power Apps triggers and respond to Power Apps actions. If you run it the first time with a hard coded number that will normally set the schema correctly. If your parameter for input is a variable it will often think its a string. I normally suggest sending all the parameters as strings and converting any number values after the parameter arrives in Power Apps. I would also suggest using the Power Apps v2 trigger instead of the Power Apps trigger with ask in powerapps.
