Run multiple flows with one trigger/button

Posted on by Aethyta

Is it possible for me to run multiple flows with from one button in Power Apps?

I can't seem to get both flows to run if statement is true, it would either skip the first run or fail the 2nd run. When it fails, the varID returns blank. Below is the current formula for the OnSelect

Set(varID, ThisItem.ID);
If(
 CountRows(DataCardValue1.Attachments) > 0, 
 //true
 SubmitForm(EditItemForm); 'SendNotification'.Run(varID); 'SaveAttach'.Run(varID),
 //false
 SubmitForm(EditItemForm); 'SendNotification'.Run(varID); 
)

Hi @Tamras ,

When you say varID returns blank, you have not asked to Flow to return anything, just set varID as the parameter the Flows are asking for. Also where are you running this code from (inside a gallery or form)? What does the SaveAttach Flow do (you have already submitted the form with the attachment card on it?

@WarrenBelz The button is inside a form. It saves the form and sends the notification. But if there's an attachment, I also want to save it in another library with a date stamp included in the file name. Below is the SaveAttach flow:

@Tamras ,

You did not mention the returning varID, so I assume this is simply used to identify the record you want to attach to. You might also try this.

SubmitForm(EditItemForm); Set(varID,EditItemForm.LastSubmit).ID; 'SendNotification'.Run(varID); If( CountRows(DataCardValue1.Attachments) = 0, 'SaveAttach'.Run(varID), )

@Tamras ,

Typo on my response - now fixed - if yours is working, good, but this ensures the ID is the one you just submitted.

I think there's another typo, extra comma in IF statement.
