Hello everyone,
I am currently facing an issue with Power Automate and would really appreciate some help. Specifically, I am having trouble with the Get Items action for SharePoint and the Apply to Each loop.
The problem is that the Apply to Each loop will continue to run due to parallel flows, this happens because 1 of the 2 Start Flow on Document event being able to activate one of the flows and leave the other running. This is causing my flow to get stuck and not proceed further.
I was wondering if anyone knows of a solution to this problem. Is there any way to get rid of the Apply to Each loop so I can use the Terminate action instead? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your help!
If you are intending to run this on every item that you return from Get Items, whether it's 1 or 100, and you need to use this format of parallel flows running, I'd probably split out everything that's currently in the Apply To Each (let's call it the Document Signature flow), and turn it into it's own flow.
Then the "Get Items" and whatever trigger (manual or automated or whatever) a separate "Start" flow -- the only difference is that you will now either use "Start Child Flow" (if you build within a solution), OR, if that is overwhelming and you don't want to touch solutions, you can do it the old fashioned way ... create another list, and for each "Get Items", add the ID of the item into that list, and have your Document Signature flow start when an item is created in that list.
So ... options.
