Power Automate - SharePoint DateTime Null value update. New designer bug?

I believe this is a bug using the new designer of Power Automate regarding the null expressions. Update SharePoint DateTime column with null values.

I am glad to have found this video. My struggle is over. I wasted a day trying to figure out what could be the problem with my flow, which had previously worked.

Why did I not find this sooner....what a ridiculous bug! Thanks 👍

[@abm4975]

Thanks

[@LeandroCarvalho-hn4ti]

This is frustrating... I spent a few hours researching this, thank you. I think I am going to debug in old designer and try stick to that for now.

[@abm4975]

Glad I could help!

[@user-xn6mh2tq5m]

I, like many of the other commenters am grateful to have found this video, and can confirm as of today it's still an issue. Classic mode: works, New Designer Mode: error.

[@abm4975]

You're welcome!

I would like to thank you very much for your video. I have already lost many hours of time today. Your hint about the bug and the tip to bypass it is perfect. Without your advice I would have slowly despaired ...

[@abm4975]

Glad it helped. Thanks for your kind comments.

This is an absolute bug and many thanks for this guide. I just solved the issue of null handling in a date field.

[@abm4975]

Glad it helped!

[@saintywong2565]

OMFG, this bug is ridiculous, you save my days dude, really appreciate for this video.

[@abm4975]

Hi
Thanks a lot for your support.

[@Ingwa326]

Thx! I can confirm this, wasted several hours while trying to find my "mistake" in the code. And it was just this dumb new designer, you pointed me in the right direction..

[@abm4975]

Thanks for your comments and confirmation about the bug.

[@eduardopolezi398]

dude you just helped me get through this shitty error that I was stuck in for HOURS

[@abm4975]

Thanks a lot for your support.

[@chandrasekharrajuaddepalli6549]

Thanks a lot dude. I am struggling from few days, your video is really a saviour to me

[@abm4975]

Glad it helped. Thanks for your kind comments.

[@villetoivoniemi6222]

I struggled with this so much. You can see actually in code view, that the code is different when you try to do that in new designer. In new designer, it puts the values inside of {}, at least when you are dealing with date columns. With old designer, it doesn't use those but i'm pretty sure it has something to do with it.

[@floriandenmark]

thank you so much 🙏 ... I spend, as others, hours on this shit🤯

[@abm4975]

Glad it helped. Thanks a lot.

[@user-md7rz7hk8l]

You are a life saver!!! Thank you

[@abm4975]

Happy to help! Thanks for your kind comments.

[@kishorsubedi4215]

I believe this issue is fixed now in the new designer. Just tried it. But thank you for the video.

[@abm4975]

Good to hear

[@villetoivoniemi6222]

I have still the same issue

[@mzonerz]

Stupid issue!! wasted my half day on it. 1000 thanx bro!!

[@abm4975]

Thanks a lot for the support

[@mzonerz]

@@abm4975 coming back to give you a feed back, I believe MS has resloved the issue. U may verify, Now it worked on my New Designer.

[@iyurisevic]

Well done!! this was my issue, and can fix using your steps. Did you report it to Microsoft?

[@abm4975]

Thanks for the support. No I haven't. That's due to the editor being quite new and can switch over to classic

[@AlbrechtPhilipp]

Thank you so much! Why didn't I search the net before waisting hours on this bug?!

[@abm4975]

Thanks

[@niclas6929]

This sadly seems not to work with the "Update Item" action :(

[@abm4975]

Hi
Try with the old classic mode.

[@naseemahmad5038]

One more reason to hate microsoft...

[@abm4975]

Hi
I can understand your frustration. I still use the old designer. The new designer has some bugs. May be soon we will have a full working solution. Good luck and best wishes.
Thanks
