Dear Team, can anyone help me with the below error code, please? I would like to skip Parse JSON to not feed anything, but not sure how to do that. Thank you.

InvalidTemplate. Unable to process template language expressions in action 'Parse_JSON' inputs at line '0' and column '0': 'Required property 'content' expects a value but got null. Path ''.'.

@CU30091014-0,

Use a Condition to Check for Valid Content

Step 1 - Add a Condition before Parse JSON

and( not(empty(outputs('Your_Previous_Action')?['body'])), length(outputs('Your_Previous_Action')?['body']) > 0 )

Replace 'Your_Previous_Action' with the name of the step that provides the JSON content. This ensures the content is not null and the content is not an empty array

Step 2 - Move Parse JSON into the "If yes" branch - Only run Parse JSON if the condition is true.

Step 3 - Handle the "If no" branch - Skip it entirely / Or set a variable to an empty object/array.

Thank you @developerAJ. Your help is much appreciated :)

Please see the code:

Content is Outputs.

Schema:

    "type": "array",

    "items": {

        "type": "object",

        "properties": {

            "name": {

                "type": "string"

            },

            "link": {

                "type": "string"

            },

            "id": {

                "type": "string"

            },

            "type": {},

            "size": {

                "type": "integer"

            },

            "referenceId": {

                "type": "string"

            },

            "driveId": {

                "type": "string"

            },

            "status": {

                "type": "integer"

            },

            "uploadSessionUrl": {}

        }

    }

This looks like a Flow issue. You’re using the Parse JSON action, and the error occurs because it expects the content property to be non-empty, but the input you’re passing is null. If the content field is optional, you can remove it from the required properties to allow null values. If you share the code you’ve pasted, I can provide you with the replacement code.

If this solution helped you resolve your issue, kindly mark it as accepted — it makes it easier for others to find and also closes the discussion. If you found it useful, a Like ❤️ would be greatly appreciated!
