Re: Problems with Flow Expected Object but got Arr...

AlfonsoLans · ‎01-10-2022

Hi Team hope you all are doing great I need help with my flow, I am getting this message:

[ { "message": "Invalid type. Expected Object but got Array.", "lineNumber": 0, "linePosition": 0, "path": "cfdi:Comprobante.cfdi:Conceptos.cfdi:Concepto", "schemaId": "#/properties/cfdi:Comprobante/properties/cfdi:Conceptos/properties/cfdi:Concepto", "errorType": "type", "childErrors": [] } ]

Hi @AlfonsoLans

If means that the flow action is expecting an object {} but you have provided it with an array []. What is it you are trying to do? Can you share details or does this help?

Hi @AlfonsoLans

Your concepto array has 3 objects. You would need to create an apply to each if you want to create 3 items.

This is a great tool for visualising a JSON array Best JSON Viewer and JSON Beautifier Online (codebeautify.org)

I have copied your sample JSON to a compose:

And all 3 descriptions are output using following:

outputs('Compose')?['cfdi:Comprobante/cfdi:Conceptos/cfdi:Concepto']

Damien

AlfonsoLans · ‎01-10-2022

Awesome @DamoBird365 let me give it a shot, I am super new into this Thanks for your help, quick question does the 3 apply to each are created after the compose and on the Description type what kind of operation do I use, thanks in advance for your awesome help

AlfonsoLans · ‎01-10-2022

Unfortunately I am not able to do it @DamoBird365 like I said I an new into this and I am not sure how to input those 3 new descriptions into the apply to each with the Compose

For example on the apply to each I am copying the formula that you provided

outputs('Compose')?['cfdi:Comprobante/cfdi:Conceptos/cfdi:Concepto']

Then you said that into the other 3 descriptions you said that:

And all 3 descriptions are output using following:

outputs('Compose')?['cfdi:Comprobante/cfdi:Conceptos/cfdi:Concepto']

But I see Item and other things in there,

Apologize for not knowing 100% and again thanks a lot for your help

AlfonsoLans · ‎01-10-2022

Not Sure what I am doing wrong but still gives me the same problem as before

Again apologize adn thanks for your support

DamoBird365 · ‎01-10-2022

Hi @AlfonsoLans

A few things to understand here. As I mentioned before, you have 3 objects. You will therefore get 3 items. The creation of the item would happen inside the apply to each.

The apply to each will loop through the 3 items. I chose the description field as an example.

With the cfdi:concepto array as input per below, create an item with the description in the title.

Parse JSON is used to turn an array into dynamic values. If you want to use this, place it before the apply to each, based on the output from you compose (which I assume is the full output). Note you don't need to use Parse JSON if you understand how to create expressions.

Here is a good article on JSON Power Automate: skip the Parse JSON action to reference data (microsoft.com) and why you don't need to use Parse if you work on your understanding.

Damien

AlfonsoLans · ‎01-10-2022

Thanks @DamoBird365 for your great help, I will review into these topics and I will keep you posted on the result, just one more question I am getting the XML than I am Parsing the JSON to create the values that I need from the XML to populate my Sharepoint list and make it a lot more easier, as I can show you below, but when I received more than 1 row on the Description is when I and havin trouble,

Let me show you below:

When the XML (in this case is a PDF of the XML) has 1 row all goes good

But when there is more than 1 row is when I am having trouble,

On the single row the information is getting perfect to my sharepoint

And the only time when the flow fails is when I have more than 1 row of information into the Concepto,

I just wanted to show you the whole thing just in case,

As far as building expressions I am not that good at it but I will review tha information that you have provided, that is why I was using the Parse Json information came out a lot better from the XML and is will be a lot easier to populate the sharepoint list

Again Thanks a lot for your help Buddy appreciate it,
