User not getting added to sharepoint group intermittently

[nitishbi]

Hi All,

I have created a ms flow which uses SharePoint Rest api to add particular user to a sharepoint group.

Some time this flow runs successfully but it does not add user to sharepoint group. This is happening intermittently and neither MS flow throwing any error.

Has anyone face this issue?

SharePoint API:

_api/web/sitegroups(123)/users

Hi @nitishbi 

Check your run history and see the results?

Thanks

Flow does not show any error for the step which calls the sharepoint rest api and shows success check mark (✔️) 😞🙄

Hi @nitishbi 

Thanks for your quick reply. Add a compose action after the http and output the body from the http. Then check the run results.

Thanks

Hi @nitishbi,

How do you configure the Send HTTP request?

I try to add a user into my Group, but not find the same issue:

According to the output, it seems like the user has been added in the group, you could use the following HTTP request to check the Group members:

_api/Web/SiteGroups/GetById(5)/Users

Hi @v-litu-msft ,

Thanks for the response.

I am using same api and it works most of the time, but few time it does not add user to group and shows no error or failure.

This is happening intermittently.
