Infinite loop and question on building flow

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello,

 

I'm building a flow to sync a SP list to SQL, but I am a bit confused on what to put in the conditions in order to stop the loop base one a forums I saw to do so.

This is what I've gotten so far as to building my flow.

 

Thanks,

 

Jvang

    @ScottShearer,

     

    No, the trigger keeps going and I am unsure why. I haven't updated my SP yet as well.

    Does the trigger filter that you added stop the infinite loop?  Please test and let me know.

    @ScottShearer,

    I added the conditions, but not its giving me an warning in my flow checker on "infinite trigger loop."

    The blog suggests that you create a trigger condition - go to settings for the condition and refer to the instructions in the blog post.

    @ScottShearer,

    I followed the blog provided, but when creating a condition, I am unsure of what to put in the conditions.

    The easy way would be either to use a condition or a trigger filter that checks the account in the Modified By column.  If it was modified by you (if your connection was used for the Update item action), do nothing.  

    Another more complicated solution can be found here in a blog that I wrote.

    Hello @ScottShearer,

     

    I am using SP (when an item is created or modified). I might add a recurrent  every 10 mins later when everything runs good.

     

    Thanks,

    Jvang
