Hello All,

I am trying to build a workflow which based on some conditions it should update the SharePoint item. I am using standard 'Update Item' in SharePoint connectors however it gives error. 'Actions in this flow may result in an infinite trigger loop. Please ensure you add appropriate conditional checks to prevent this flow from triggering itself.'

Below the snap i have attached.

I gone through some community references and found that we should apply a trigger condition [@equals(triggerBody()?['Status']?['value'],'Under Review') ] to resolve the issue. I did that as well but still i am getting this error. Can anyone please help or suggest?

Kind Regards,

Hello @AkshayManke,
There is your error. It seems like you are trying to get the Email from somewhere but its not accessed correctly. Can you post a screenshot of your Flow here? especially where are you getting this email from and how are you accessing it in your Send an Email action.

Hello @AkshayManke ,
Ok, the image you shared is the warning from the Flow Checker.
Can you open one of the failed instances and share a screenshot of the errors appearing on that page?

Hi @NiloferA, The same error i am getting which i added in the subject line. Would like to share something: The same configuration is working in other flow. But not working other than that. Its strange.

Hello @AkshayManke ,
In that case, perhaps there is another issue with your Flow. Can you share the error details here?

Hello @NiloferA,

I agree with your point. But all the instances are failing when the flow runs hence i am more worried. Can there be any workaround to overcome from the warning?

Thanks,
Akshay

Hello @AkshayManke ,
The message you are talking about is not an error but a warning just to make you cautious that if you do not use the Update Item action correctly your flow may go in an infinite loop.
But yes using trigger conditions you can actually prevent this from happening so you can just ignore the message.
