Power BI - False trigger of flow (value did not change, log attached)

Posted on 19 Nov 2019 07:35:07 by 5

Hi 

 

I have a Power BI tile monitoring errors in a database.

  • New error = new flow ,
  • no schedule on the Flow
  • Daily refresh schedule on the Power BI dataset

 

I cannot figure out WHY the flow triggered. There are no changes in the source-dataset. And even more strange, why did it trigger again after exactly one week? 

 

 

Output code from this week

 "tileValue": 29
 }
}

 

 

Output code from last week, tile value = 29

    Hi @RemiØvstebø,

     

    Sorry for not making it clear, but what you understand is exactly what I want you to try.

     

    Seems like the Flow is simple and no other problem, if the test work (turn off the recurrence update), it will be caused by the update.

    I have since removed the outlook step on the right.I have since removed the outlook step on the right.

    Picture of flow above. 

     

     

    Im having a hard time figuring out exactly what you are advising me to do: 


    Should I have two datasets or two schedules? 

     

    1. Copy dataset

    2. Copy schedule

    3. Turn schedule off

    4. Copy monitor-tile and connect it to the flow 

    5. See if flow triggers when dataset does not update?

    Hi @RemiØvstebø,

     

    Could you provide screenshots of your Flow configuration?

    I notice that there is a daily refresh schedule on the Power BI dataset. You can create a copy one schedule to update the other Power BI dataset, then copy the Power BI tile monitor Flow, turn off the copied schedule to check it whether it will trigger the copied Power BI tile monitor Flow.
