Stop letting your Power Apps flows fail with useless “Something went wrong” messages. In this Low to Pro episode, Ace shows you how to pass rich, meaningful errors from Power Automate back into Power Apps so users (and makers) actually know what broke and why. You’ll learn how to combine IfError, With, and collections in Power Apps with proper Response actions, status codes, and JSON in Power Automate, plus how to use parallel branches and run after settings to catch failures cleanly. By the end, your apps will surface clear, user-friendly error messages instead of cryptic failures—making debugging, support, and user experience dramatically better. 👉 On-Demand Learning - Start With The FREE Community Plan: https://prag.works/odl-trial-yt 🔗Pragmatic Works On-Demand Learning Packages: https://pragmaticworks.com/pricing/ 🔗Pragmatic Works Boot Camps: https://pragmaticworks.com/boot-camps/ 🔗Pragmatic Works Hackathons: https://pragmaticworks.com/private-training/hackathons/ 🔗Pragmatic Works Virtual Mentoring: https://pragmaticworks.com/virtual-mentoring/ 🔗Pragmatic Works Enterprise Private Training: https://pragmaticworks.com/private-training/customized-enterprise-training/ 🔗Pragmatic Works Blog: http://blog.pragmaticworks.com/ 00:00 – Why Power Apps flows fail with unhelpful errors 00:22 – App + flow overview and the Power Apps → Power Automate handshake 01:15 – Catching flow failures in Power Apps with IfError 01:48 – Using With and collections to work with flow outputs and errors 02:47 – Inside the flow: trigger, API call, select, and intentional failure 04:07 – Replacing Terminate with Response to return detailed error info 06:35 – Using run-after and parallel branches to handle failed actions 07:43 – Handling “no results” cases and returning custom error messages 08:48 – Parsing JSON and surfacing clean error text to the user 09:49 – Final tips, virtual mentoring, and next steps Let's connect: ✔️Discord: https://prag.works/yt-discord ✔️Facebook: https://prag.works/yt-fb ✔️Instagram: https://prag.works/yt-insta ✔️LinkedIn: https://prag.works/yt-li Pragmatic Works 350 Governor St, Suite 300, Green Cove Springs, FL 32043 Phone: (904) 638-5743 Email: [email protected] #PragmaticWorks
