New email trigger stopped working

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 150

Hi everyone.

I had a flow that was triggered when a new email arrived in a folder... and was working great.
I then changed which folder that should trigger the flow... and it stopped working.
I even changed back to the original folder... but it's still broken.

Only weird thing I could find was when I choose "Peek code"... and I saw that both the old folder (Yellow) and the new folder (blue) was mentioned in the code... even though only one of the was the active trigger.

I will now try to remove the trigger and rebuild the entire flow... but this problem irritates me, since I made the flow to share and I don't want the users to get problems if they change the folder.

    Ok... I tried to remove and recreate the trigger... didn't work.
    I tried to build a new flow from scratch... didn't work.

    For some reason the flow aren't triggered by a new email anymore... even though it worked just a few hours ago when I demonstrated it to a few colleagues.

    Think I might have found the reason...

    If I read this right I can't use the same email twice for testing, but have to use new emails everytime.
    Also I can't use emails older then the last run... so if I used the run today, anything older then that can't be used.

    This creates some challenges since my plan was for users to be able to drag emails to that folder to trigger an automatic download of the email... no matter how old it was.
