Flow Error Send HTTP Request to SharePoint to Clear out a Person Field

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I am receiving an error when I try to clear out a person field using Sent an HTTP Request to SharePoint.  It is a SharePoint Library. 

The error is:

A type named 'SP.Data.TestListListItem' could not be resolved by the model. When a model is available, each type name must resolve to a valid type.

The person field is SOL

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thank you

Hi @Anonymous,

The Error that you met is caused by the wrong SP.ListNamelListItem, did you have renamed your List name in the past time?

If you have done, you can use the following link to get the ListEntityTypeFullName:

Hi Lin Tu,

Thank you for your help.  It is a new document library  I just built to troubleshoot and I named it TestList

Unfortunately when I try this 

/_api/web/lists/getbytitle(‘TestList’)?$select=ListItemEntityTypeFullName

after the site, I receive this error.

<m:error xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata">

<m:code>

-1, Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.InvalidClientQueryException

</m:code>

<m:message xml:lang="en-US">

The expression "web/lists/getbytitle(‘TestList’)" is not valid.

</m:message>

</m:error>

Is it because it is a Library?

I tried a Custom list and still getting this error

Thank you,

Joanna

Hi @Anonymous,

I can reproduce your problem with the wrong list name, your issue probably caused by the error list name:

You could refer to this blog to get the XML data of a SharePoint list, then get the correct list name:

ok, it works perfectly.  Thank you. 

My last struggle was with the List vs the Library.  The SP.Data is TestListItem for a Library but it is TestListListItem if it's a Custom List.  One more List 🙂

Anyway, Lin Tu, your solution 

_api/lists/getbytitle('TestList')?$select=ListItemEntityTypeFullName

shows me the exact SP.Data list name.

Thank you so much!  You made my day!!!!
