I have a SharePoint list for which I have created several different workflows, mostly to send automated emails to those individuals that have added items to the list, have been assigned items, or an item that they added has been updated. The emails are relatively simple, with a paragraph of text and a few Dynamic content elements added. There are a number of nested branches within the workflow with conditions based on the value of a drop-down field called "Status". When users are updating the list, if they edit more than 2 or 3 items within a short (5-minute period), the flow becomes throttled, and sometime fails due to a "time-out". The list is being "Edited in Grid View" for efficiency. Any suggestions on how to prevent this from happening?
There is also a secondary issue....if the user spends more than a few seconds editing one of the items (rows) in the Grid view, the workflow will fire more than once, causing duplicate emails to be sent (sometimes with incomplete information if the edit is still in progress). I am using the trigger "When an Existing Item is modified" to kick off the flow. Is there a change to the flow or the list settings that can precent issue?
