I am using try catch in my workflow. In try block I am trying to convert a string to integer and trying to catch the exception by using system.exception but the exception is not caught. can anybody help. I have attached the screenshots

You can’t handle this with system.exception, you have to give specific exception type to handle this

as below you have to search for InvalidCastException

Mark as Solution if this helps

Thanks

@Srini84

InvalidCastException

Thanks for your reply @Srini84 but I am still getting the same error after using InvalidCastException. To give you more insight of the problem I am using Try Catch Activity in Flocwchart Instead of Sequence. Does this affect?

@kishan_santlani

can you run the file not Debug file and share the exception screenshot

Thanks

Thank you so much @Srini84 for the help. It worked fine while running the file instead of debugging. It seems like try catch do not work as expected in debug mode.
