Deleting Flows

Posted on by LG-13041436-0
I have a flow that runs when a user is deleted. I deleted 100-200 users at once and I had too many flows at once so they would not run, even after a few days they were still running. Then I decided to cancell all of them but 4-5 days later they all say they are still in the process of being cancelled. How can I fix this to force cancel them?

    Have you tried turning the flow off? I believe that not only stops it running but may help to cancel stuck sessions.
     
    Thanks

    HI,
     
    Use Power Automate Management connector to bulk cancel
    create a quick temporary flow that uses the "Cancel a Flow Run" action from the Power Automate Management connector, loop through all the stuck run IDs and cancel them that way, this is much more easy than doing it manually.

    Last option..If nothing works raise a Microsoft support ticket.
