Hello Experts,

I am getting the below exception sporadically while calling a custom workflow activity from the Action and sending the input parameters to the actions.

It would be great anyone can help with this.

Exception type: Microsoft.Crm.Workflow.Services.InvalidCustomActivityExecutionException
Message: An unexpected error occurred from ISV code. (ErrorType = ClientError) Unexpected exception from plug-in (Execute):

Below is the Process session log info :

    Hi Srikanth,

    Please refer to the following documentation, which trouble shoots the error with the same error code:

    Troubleshoot plug-ins (Microsoft Dataverse for Apps) - Power Apps | Microsoft Docs

     

    If this helped you, I'd appreciate it if you'd mark this as a Verified Answer, which may in turn help others as well.

    Best Regards,

    Nya

    Hi,

    It looks like the error occurs in the custom workflow: D365.Workflows.OpportunityWorkflow.PaymetricWF

    Please share the workflow code and the action that calls for the custom workflow
