Unable to add flow

Hi All,

I am getting an error when trying to add a Flow. The error message says 'The flow input and output schema cannot be represented in WADL. code: FlowWadlConversionNotSupported' 

I actually updated an existing flow to allow PowerApps to pass one extra parameter. I got an error when refreshing the existing flow. The error message is 'The flow input and output schema cannot be represented in WADL.
code: FlowWadlConversionNotSupported' .  This is the reason I created a new flow.

 

The new flow was created by clikin on 'Add new' in the power app maker. It did work initially and srated throwing hte error when I made update to parse JSON. I have removed the JSON parsing part and the error is still there.

 

Did anyone have similar issue?

 

Thanks,

I changed the trigger from power app to 'PoerApps 2.0', re-created the variables are required to be passed from power apps and saved the flow. 

This has resolved the issue for me.

Hi @aarnav 

Please check whether you have turned on your flow or not, sometimes it may throw you some errors, or you need to recreate a new flow by avoiding an exception.

Refer to the below link for your reference,

Turn flows on/off

This has resolved the issue for me.

When I tried this solution the option to "ask in powerapps" for defining the variable is no longer available. How did you go about setting up your variables?

When you remove the trigger and add it back, it will give option to re-initialize the variables. I tried the above steps and it works fine.

I was getting this same issue and I think it just means there is a schema mismatch between what you're feeding your response action and what it's expecting.  Here was my solution.

 

Check your schema definition in your Response action.  Make sure:

1) All the data types match the results, no strings being forced into integers, etc

2) All key-value pairs HAVE a data type

 

I built my flow using dummy data, and used that same dummy data to generate my response schema, all worked great.  Then I had to add one or two additional key value pairs to the response.  I used a real query result from my data source to re-generate the schema and thought I was good.  PowerAutomate was happy to save.

 

The issue was when I added two more keys, I used real query results to generate the schema and my real results had two NULLs in them.  The schema left those data types out, because it didn't know how to interpret them.  Once I added "type": "string" for each of them, my issues went away.

 

I tried replacing the trigger, using PowerApps v2 and all kind of things.  I just missed something on my schema.

Thank-you so much. Wish I would've come across this answer an hour ago.

same happens to me

 

If you want to send me your schema to take a look at, I'll see if I can find anything. 

this saved me! thank you!!

The best way to make sure you know what's going on in the News & Announcements, to blogs you follow, or forums and galleries you're interested in is to subscribe! These subscriptions ensure you receive automated messages about the most recent posts and replies. Even better, there are multiple ways you can subscribe to content and boards in the community! (Please note: if you have created an AAD (Azure Active Directory) account you won't be able to receive e-mail notifications.)   Subscribing to a Category  When you're looking at the entire category, select from the Options drop down and choose Subscribe.     You can then choose to Subscribe to all of the boards or select only the boards you want to receive notifications. When you're satisfied with your choices, click Save.   Subscribing to a Topic You can also subscribe to a single topic by clicking Subscribe from the Options drop down menu, while you are viewing the topic or in the General board overview, respectively.     Subscribing to a Label Find the labels at the bottom left of a post.From a particular post with a label, click on the label to filter by that label. This opens a window containing a list of posts with the label you have selected. Click Subscribe.           Note: You can only subscribe to a label at the board level. If you subscribe to a label named 'Copilot' at board #1, it will not automatically subscribe you to an identically named label at board #2. You will have to subscribe twice, once at each board.   Bookmarks Just like you can subscribe to topics and categories, you can also bookmark topics and boards from the same menus! Simply go to the Topic Options drop down menu to bookmark a topic or the Options drop down to bookmark a board. The difference between subscribing and bookmarking is that subscriptions provide you with notifications, whereas bookmarks provide you a static way of easily accessing your favorite boards from the My subscriptions area.   Managing & Viewing Your Subscriptions & Bookmarks To manage your subscriptions, click on your avatar and select My subscriptions from the drop-down menu.     From the Subscriptions & Notifications tab, you can manage your subscriptions, including your e-mail subscription options, your bookmarks, your notification settings, and your email notification format.     You can see a list of all your subscriptions and bookmarks and choose which ones to delete, either individually or in bulk, by checking multiple boxes.     A Note on Following Friends on Mobile Adding someone as a friend or selecting Follow in the mobile view does not allow you to subscribe to their activity feed. You will merely be able to see your friends’ biography, other personal information, or online status, and send messages more quickly by choosing who to send the message to from a list, as opposed to having to search by username.
