Introduction: In this blog we will demonstrate the working of HTTP Request -Response in Microsoft Flows. Implementation: Step 1:  In our example we will make a POST call to our Microsoft Flow so that we can further apply some logic in Flows. The POST request contains the following data. JSON: [{ “name”: “TestName”, “Address”: “TestAddress” }] Now we can use online editor tools to create a schema file of the above JSON. (https://jsonschema.net/). Submit the JSON data and the schema will be generated as shown below. Step 2: Now we go to Microsoft Flows,create a new flow and add the first step as “Request” as shown below: Step 3: We then paste the JSON schema that we earlier saved In the “Show advanced”  options we have to add the following details: Once that is done we select a condition. In our example we  will pass a JSON Array hence we will loop through each item. Here we add a apply to each condition as shown And we add a dynamic output from the previous stage Then inside the apply to each loop we can add any action and take the values passed from the POST request. For this example I create a new account in CRM with the name and address provided as shown below Step 4: Now when we save this flow a URL is generated in the First HTTP Request step. We test the flow by calling this URL from Postman. The URL generated is show below Step 5: Now we open Postman and write the request as shown below Also in the Header section we add the following details Step 6: Once we click on Send the two records are created in CRM as shown below Conclusion: We can call this URL from outside Dynamics CRM as well and using this we explore many more functionalities provided by Microsoft Flows to achieve the desired outcome.
