Streamlining Automation: Integrating Scripts with Logic Apps

Tuesday, January 7, 2025 5:00 PM Martina Grom
Calling scripts from an Automation Account in a Logic App is particularly useful when the tasks to be performed are too complex to implement directly in a Logic App. It is also useful when scripts need to be reused multiple times without rewriting them in each Logic App. See how to enhance your Logic Apps with Automation Account Scripts.

Azure Logic Apps Toolbox 7-Resolve issues with the SharePoint Connector

Thursday, March 11, 2021 10:45 PM Toni Pohl
Using SharePoint Online (SPO) and Azure Logic Apps helps to automate processes. For a project, we have created some workflows with Azure Logic Apps that monitor changes to an SPO list or document library for approvals and other document workflows. We have found that the SPO connector does not always send all data in a reproducible manner: sometimes some fields were sent and sometimes not. We struggled with this behavior and found an unexpected workaround.

Azure Logic Apps Toolbox 5-Custom JSON payloads

Thursday, January 14, 2021 8:51 PM Christoph Wilfing
Did you ever have the problem of pushing different JSON payloads to a logic app and hitting errors due to JSON schema mismatches? The usual HTTP Request forces you to define the JSON Schema at the beginning. For every tiny difference in the later used properties you need to create your own Logic App even if the process is the same. I will show you an example of a single Logic App deciding at runtime which JSON schema to use for decoding the post body payload. Stay tuned!

Azure Logic Apps Toolbox 2-Send text and files (multipart/form-data) to SharePoint Online

Monday, February 17, 2020 6:00 AM Toni Pohl
Using an Azure Logic app is often a quick fix for small computing tasks. So my scenario is as follows: I want to use a form on a website to offer text fields and file upload. The submit button is intended to send the data to a Logic App. The Logic App receives the data and writes it to a SharePoint Online list and sends a notification if necessary.
