Hello Brian-Smith​,

I am very newbie to Power Automate as normally I used SharePoint Designer to create workflow for Project Online. As SP Designer is being retired and I need to set up a workflow for a new MS tenant created early this year, so I follow your instruction on developing the workflow in Power Automate. 

So far I create actions step by step following your blog and got error when running the flow.

This is the flow I set:

The error message: 401 UNAUTHORIZED
clientRequestId: a8ffb78d-0e5c-4136-830d-f165e3b1ef75
serviceRequestId: 2ae9a2a1-80d3-5000-4c0d-1ecf48623cdf

How to fix

You should be able to fix this by verifying your account with . You may need to re-enter your password.

I've tried signing in the account, but still error.

Is this error from missing initializing these variables?

If yes, please advise the input data for each block. I have no idea how to fill in the information required.
