In my previous post I showed you how to create a flat file decoding Logic App. When I first tested this I used URL generated when I first saved the Logic App to create a post command using the compose feature of fiddler.
The body of the message contained a single cvs row that I wanted to debug and I was hoping to see the response containing the xml representation of the csv file.
When I submitted the request, fiddler displayed an 502 error – Bad Gateway
This wasn’t very helpful and I needed to understand what had gone wrong.
Navigating to the Logic App in the Azure Portal I noticed that the Overview blade showed the runs for the Logic App
Clicking the failed run opened a new blade in the portal which showed my Logic App and it failing at the Flat File Decoding stage
Clicking the Flat File Decode caused it to expand and show me a more detailed (and useful) error
The error told me that the Flat File Decode couldn’t find the CR/LF at the end of the line. As I’d put a single line of text and no CR/LF the decoding failed.
I repeated the POST, this time with the CR/LF at the end of the body and the Logic App worked correctly and the correct xml representation of the csv was displayed in the body of the response.
