How to get data from "odata.nextLink": "https://xxxx

Could anyone suggest how to get data from "odata.nextLink": "https://xxxx after receiving json resutl from Send an HTTP request to SharePoint?

 

Is it possible to parse it as json and use it in another HTTP request to SharePoint?

I don't know where should I put odata.nextLink to. It should be SiteAddress or URI? I tried both and still fail.

 

Thanks!odata.png

Hi @Maijija117 

 

You are spot on actually nice deduction. In this instance I cannot remember though if its a Header that came back or in the Body.

 

But if its in the Body, then yes

Do this

1. Run the process one time where you call SharePoint the first time, after that we dont care if it fails

2. Go to the Details page, go to the history of runs, and open the one you just did

3. Copy the Output from the call

4. Add a  Parse JSON action

for the Schema click the button as a sample, paste in what you copied

5. For the input, use the Output (might be called body) from the HTTP Request, from the Dynamic Content Window

 

As long as we copy and paste the right schema and or make sure we pick the right output and level of json path, you will be able to get the odata.nextlink

 

If you share the flow details with the run I can help more, but you are 150% on the correct path.

 

P.S. technically you dont need a Parse JSON its just a teaching/learning opportunity. You could use a Compose, click on the Dynamic Content, which will add something like body(...) or output(...) and when you hover over it you will see the total "path" it creates.

 

If you take that.. and you visually look at the output, you can figure out the path to the odatalink

Imagine the out put looks like this

body('HTTP_REQUEST')['body/value']

And when you look at the Response JSON, you can clearly see the value Object. Thats your start path

And if the odatalink is simply a child then you would have

body('HTTP_REQUEST')['body/value']?['odata.nextlink']

 

Just an example but another way.

I used this compose and it worked.

I cannot use odata.nextlink straight foward but It must cut something off then put it to URI for connector Send HTTP.

 

slice(body('Parse_JSON')?['odata.nextLink'], nthIndexOf(body('Parse_JSON')?['odata.nextLink'], '_', 4))
