I came across this issue when getting response from custom connector in PowerApps. I had gone through numerous community forum and tutorial guide on getting response data from custom connector. Hope someone would able to shed some light for me on this.
The issue I faced:
1. Kept getting True as the response from the custom connector, below is the custom connector I used.
ClearCollect(testData, CustomTrigger.Run("pending", 20, 0))
2. Unable to use CustomConnector.Run(<param>).applicant
UpdateContext({applicant: CustomTrigger.Run("pending", 20, 0).applicant})
How to re-create the situation that I faced:
1. I follow the exact steps in the following tutorial as a start (Microsoft) register-and-use-custom-apis-in-powerapps. However, I failed to get the response correctly.
3. I continue my search on the Internet and I managed to find this sergeluca.wordpress.com blog. Still, I can't get the response correctly.
Result that I'm looking for:
1. My collection is filled with the data that I wish to get from the response
{ data: [{ application: "20190331", applicant: "John", courseName: "Learn to be a better person", dateStart: "2019-04-12T00:00:00.0000000", dateEnd: "2019-04-15T00:00:00.0000000", syllabus: [{ syllabusName: "Speak better" }, { syllabusName: "Listen better" }] }] }
Thanks .
Hi @ZephyerPH, as everyone's custom connector and API has a different schema/structure, it's often hard know what the precise issue is. Thank you for pasting the schema you are expecting and the collection result.
For issue #1, this is definitely a case of not drilling in deep enough. As with your example in #2, you put a .applicant. Well for issue #1, you'll want to drill in with a .column to get to where you need.
For issue #2, can you share more about the error you're seeing. It's unclear what issue you're coming across. It could be a type mismatch issue. We don't know enough about your error and parameters to know.
These community members have a lot of posts on custom connector/HTTP schema and would be good resources and names to search: @ericonline @Anonymous @ThatAPIGuy @AntonRobbins
