Power Automate errors / Other

ActionFailed: An action failed. No dependent actions succeeded

platform: Power Automate / category: Other / code: ActionFailed

Cause

A connector action returned a 4xx/5xx from the downstream API, or a called child flow failed; Power Automate wraps the real error in this generic status.

Fix

Open the failed run and expand the action's Outputs to read the real API error and status code, then fix per status (400 bad input, 404 missing, 5xx downstream). To run an action even after a prior failure, set 'Configure run after' to include 'has failed'. For child flows, drill into the child run history.
