I have a flow that I've been using for over a year that just stopped working yesterday.

the error details say: The response is not in a JSON format.

Please help!

@yoyo

Can you provide additional details?

Have you re-saved the Flow?

Are there connection issues? If so, have you tried to fix them?

I put it in the template document as words that I want to be replaced in square brackets [] as I saw in the example: https://blog.encodian.com/2020/05/populate-a-word-or-pdf-document-using -power-automate / Does the document word have to be capitalized? the text it will replace is dynamic data collected from excel forms and tables. When the stream is displayed the following error: The response is not in JSON format.

I got it, solved my problem, went to the encodian website, changed the API key, updated the data connection menu in power automate.

no need to put a bracket, he searches for words and exchanges for others, simple

The response is not in a JSON format.
