Excel action: list rows timeout/taking too long all of the sudden

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 818

So I have a flow that has many action sof list rows. Until today they were taking around 5-max20 seconds per action. But today, They've been timing out, on one ocassion with many retries on the same action during over 10mins 😕

What could be going wrong? i do not remember touching up the flow much, and the action is quite simple, like this, only complexity would be having a filter array that compares an Excel column to a Sharepoint column (this was working great yesterday)

Could this have anything to do with the file instead? Today another person was making changes to this table, but nothing substantial, really.
i tried also creating a new flow based on this to see if the connections were messed up or something, and nope, still a lot of time running

    Does your colleague/the other person have the file open when you run the flow? That might interfere.

    Oh, he actually does have it open. Let me tell him to close it and test again. Thanks!

    @mathiaskjeldsen  hey again. He already has the file closed and its still taking too long. I tried to do it in a different  flow and yeah also taking too long T_T
    On the flow run page for that action says "GatewayTimeout" and that it is currently retrying...
    Any ideas?
