How to insert ID into different column in Sharepoint list

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6

I'd like to create a flow to insert an ID into different column for all items in a list. The list contains approximately 13,000 data entries, so I want to ensure that the process doesn't time out. Can someone please provide guidance on how to achieve this?

    Hi @ninja1997 ,

     

    Do you want to copy the item ID and paste it into another custom column?

    Please try this

    Hi v-xiaochen-msft

    Thank you very much.

    But it worked properly for the first 5,000 out of 13,000 records, but it seems to stop working after that.

    Is there a way to make it work for all records?

    I have a feeling that the 'do until' action might be helpful, what do you think?

    Hi @ninja1997 ,

     

    Quick question:

    1\ Have you turned on the pagination setting?

    2\ What's your license?

    "I hadn't set the pagination setting, so when I set it, it worked properly. Thanks to your advice, it looks like I won't be fired. Thank you so much!
