Flow Designer PowerShell Action Issue

Hi All,

We are trying to replace legacy workflow with flow designer action. I am trying to execute simple PowerShell action with variable and without variable.

PowerShell action works without variable: If I put the command in command field as below.

but If I use the variable for the same command and pass input via a variable, it doesn't work.

find_real_file.png

Output it does not show me result but the same command.

Anyone have seen a similar issue? We pass all command through variables in legacy workflow and it works but it is not working in flow designer.

I don't know if this would help, but I would check out this knowledge article:

Using flow designer in Chromium based browsers (eg. Chrome 105, Microsoft Edge 105 etc.) causes unex...

 

We had a similar issue where the flow wasn't working as expected and it was due to a \ufeff hidden character being added that causes APIs (and possibly PowerShell) to run incorrectly.

 

If you use the arrow keys to go through the text and the cursor doesn't move to the next character, the hidden character may be present, and you can use the backspace to remove it.

 

I don't know if this is the exact issue that you are seeing, but it was an issue that we ran into recently.

Look out for San Diego Patch 9 coming up soon for a solution to this Chromium based browser issue.
