Create new folder in a document library

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 14,629 Super User 2026 Season 1

Hello all,

 

I have a flow that creates new folders in a document library. I use the do until loop and i Have a counter that i set to 100. Even tho i have no error the flow only creates 60 folders. I need for my testing case 5.000 folders, so i would need to trigger the flow a few times.

 

can anyone help and let me know if i can increase the number higher than 60?

 

 

thanks in advance

    Hi @mmbr1606 

     

    My guess is that you haven't set the TimeOut for your Do Until to be long enough or your code to increase the Counter is off, or your Condition is wrong.

     

    What is your TimeOut set for?


    If you like my answer, I would really appreciate if you please Mark it as Resolved, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

    Hi @mmbr1606 

     

    Click on the Change Limits

    Change the Count and change the Timeout

    It is in this format

    Follow the convention listed P(n) etc 

    so for instance

    P3Y would be 3 years. the (n) means before the next letters, not after

    so

    P5H would be 5 hours

    etc
