Hi everyone,

I'm using Powerautomate to update the lifecycle state of my top asset whenever the lifecycle state of one of the children changes:

Object ID, Asset and Asset Type are the values that are read from this very asset before.

As response, I receive:

{

"status": 403,

"message": "An error has occurred. update not allowed for field 'MaintenanceAssetTypeId'\r\nclientRequestId: 433d7831-7942-447b-99fe-666816a3fec9",

"error": {

"message": "An error has occurred. update not allowed for field 'MaintenanceAssetTypeId'"

"source": "trainpoint-dev.sandbox.operations.no.dynamics.com",

"errors": []

}

I understand that the MaintenanceAssetTypeId cannot be changed. I don't want to change this field. I only want to update the Lifecycle State. But since "Asset Type" is required in the "update a record" block, I can't avoid filling it out. The value is the same as before.

Any ideas how to solve this?

best regards

Moritz

In my opinion, the system shouldn't complain about it, because MaintenanceAssetTypeId is bound to a read-only data source and therefore it'll never be updated. But I guess that it looks at AllowEdit property of the field, which is set to Auto and it effectively gets the value No from the table.

I think you'll need to create a data entity extension and change properties of MaintenanceAssetTypeId field. Either Mandatory=No or AllowEdit=Yes. I guess that MaintenanceAssetTypeId is required when creating a new field record, therefore it would be better to keep it mandatory and allow editing instead.
