ArcGIS Rest API – Webhooks - Microsoft flow Survey123

Question

I am trying to follow the instructions in the link below to automatically update a layer after submitting a survey in Survey123

https://resources.esri.ca/getting-technical/webhooks-microsoft-flow-and-the-arcgis-rest-api-automating-your-web-gis

However i am failing at the final hurdle and receiving this error message

https://resources.esri.ca/getting-technical/webhooks-microsoft-flow-and-the-arcgis-rest-api-automating-your-web-gis

The execution of template action 'While_Loop' failed: the result of the evaluation of 'foreach' expression '@{body('Parse_Query_JSON')?['objectIds']}
' is of type 'String'. The result must be a valid array.

Can anyone give me some idea as to what i am doing wrong?

Hi Chris

you need to look at the json in your Body , you have a comma after your colon Object ID:, you need to remove it.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply. With your help I was able to get my query to work but it looks like I'm running into the same issue as your original post described. When the last component (POST - Update Features) attempts to run. Any insights you may have on this would be appreciated.

{"error":{"code":400,"message":"Cannot perform operation. Invalid operation parameters.","details":["'features' parameter is invalid","Invalid JSON primitive: ."]}}

Hi Chris

See below. you only need a header as per my screen shot then a post

then for each object id in th e query you need to apply the edit as per below

FYI i have migrated to integromat as i find it more user friendly.
