Post an Adaptive Card and wait for a response

[Grimaldi]

When you use a "Post an Adaptive Card and wait for a response" task in Flow in conjunction with dynamic data the return values are not available.  You can bypass this by putting your dynamic data in after you have set up future tasks, but this is somewhat annoying.  See below for examples to better explain what I mean.

Using static content, no problem!

Using dynamic content, bit of a problem!

Dynamic content workaround, still annoying!

Hi @Grimaldi,

It is a known issue that the following action couldn't get a dynamic content return if the adaptive card combines with dynamic content, to solve this problem, there are two workaround:

One is using the expression to get the output of Post an Adaptive Card to a Teams channel and wait for a response action, such as I want to get the response time, the expression should be:

outputs('Post_an_Adaptive_Card_to_a_Teams_channel_and_wait_for_a_response')?['body/responseTime']

The other one is using Parse JSON action:
