Teams does not show the lookupIssues result in the message

Tanja van Wijk

I had an automation which was working fine until some days ago, did not change anything about the automation itself, but somehow the lookupIssues result shows up empty in my teams channel message.

the lookup query (JQL) gives a result of 30 items

then the automation step sends it to teams, I do get the message in teams, but without the result list, just the first text part.

step: send Microsoft teams message:

Hey team - we've got the following issues left in this sprint:
{{#lookupIssues}}
* {{key}}
{{/}}

What am i doing wrong here?

Hi @Tanja van Wijk

Welcome to the Community!

It's hard to know what the issue might be without seeing the Automation rule, can you share it? and have you looked at the Audit log for the rule to see if there are any errors?

Tanja van Wijk

Thanks!

This is what i am trying to do:

according to the Audit log, the JQL gave a result (also verified in the automation itself)

but teams shows this:

I'm having almost the same problem. However, I receive as many updates in Teams as there are found items (in this case 4).

I tested using the Send email action and I'm receiving 4 emails, but the email does contain the information I entered in the Content box:

{{#lookupIssues}}
* {{key}}: {{summary}} - {{assignee.displayName}}
{{/}}

Ok I played in the sand a bit.

@Tanja van WijkI was able to recreate your rule and test it, the full functionality worked for me. Even though it shows you the lookup results you might want to add a log action for {{lookupIssues}} to make sure the lookup is being fed into the smart value. Outside of that, since the message is being sent I wouldn't think it's an issue with the webhook but maybe try recreating the webhook in teams or make a second one to test with?

@Bill LeonardI think your issue might be due to the Subject, are you including a smart value in the Message title or email subject?
