Count number of actions in a flow

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 61

I found out that the limit on number of actions in a flow is 500.
Now I need to know if there is a way to actually find out the total number of actions in any flow.

 

I found this link, https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Count-actions-in-flow/td-p/359786

But I couldn't find the 'Get flow" action. Is it a premium feature?

In any case, I would love to find a non-manual way to count the number of actions in any flow😊
Thank you!

    Hey @Seil 

     

    Please search for "Power Automate Management", you will find the "get Flow" action.

    Thank you so much for your response!!!
    The flow ran successfully😁

    The link mentioned in my post was from 2019, so the icons have changed.

    Hi everyone,
     
    In case this is helpful to anyone else, I found that you have to search for the entire phrase "Power Automate Management", then expand the box (see yellow highlight):
     
     
    Then look for 'Power Automate Management';
     
     
    So, it is there, it's just quite well hidden :)
     
    Once it's selected, you can choose your Environment and the Flow, and, if just looking for the number of actions for that Flow, add a Compose as the next step and use the following expression:

    length(outputs('Get_Flow')?['body/properties/definitionSummary/actions'])

    (renaming 'Get_Flow' if you choose to name that action differently for any reason).
