Hi all.

Hopefully you can help me to resolve something with a recurring flow I have running. The breakdown of the flow is a s follows:

Every 12 hours

List tasks in Planner

For each task - check condition

Condition = If "appliedCategories/Category4" value retrieved from the Planner Task = True

Update a Row in Excel

Else

No Action

I do this for a total of 4 categories - essentially going into planner every 12 hours, checking if someone has assigned a label to a task, and if they have, I update a separate excel sheet with some text in a column.

This flow always fails and returns the following reasons:

In the "For Each" action :- An action failed. No dependent actions succeeded

In the "Update a Row" action :-
ActionBranchingConditionNotSatisfied

The execution of template action 'Update_a_row_1' skipped: the branching condition for this action is not satisfied.

Now here the issue: Even though though the flow fails every time - It is still updating the excel sheet with the right data.

I also get the odd message telling me that my process is running too many flows. I am relativley new to this so I'm a little unsure of how this can be fixed. I have tried the suggestions that I have found online and none of them resolve the issue.

The result of this is that after so many times of failing, the flow is switched off and needs to be manually switched back on again.

I am hoping that someone can help to identify what the fix is for this. . . . . . Is it something glaringly obvious, something I'm doing wrong or just something you cannot do in power automate?

I have attached a creenshot of the flow for better understanding.

Huge thanks to anyoen that can help me with this :-)
