Action "Office 365 Group : Send an Http request(Preview)" does not support querystring

[LutzPumpenmeier]

Hi,

in my flow i try to get some information about a office group using the action "Office 365 Group : Send an HTTP Request (Preview)".

It works fine with the url https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/groups .

But if I try to find a exact group by the mailNickname it fails:
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/groups?$filter=mailNickname eq 'something'

Error:
URI path is not a valid Graph endpoint, path is neither absolute nor relative or resource is not one of the supported (me, users, groups, sites, search, planner, teams, chats): https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/groups?$filter=mailNickname eq 'og_302'

I have tried to set the querystring as a variable, did not help. Have tried in v1.0, did not help.

Any hints to solve the issue?
Thanks

Hi @LutzPumpenmeier,

It looks a lot like it is either a bug or a limitation of that new action (which still is in preview).

I have tried the same GET request in a different action, the Invoke an HTTP request (premium connector though) and that works fine. Maybe that is a workaround for you as well?

Hi Expiscornovus,

thanks for your hint. That would be a solution if http would not be a premium connector. Our company will not buy 30.000 premium licences just to get powerautomate running in a usable way. 

But Thanks for your help.

Hi @LutzPumpenmeier,

a bit too late, but I've already told  in other topic: just add a slash before ? in "Send an HTTP request (Preview)" action

https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/groups/?$filter=mailNickname eq 'something'
