Hi,

Simple question. If we have a flow with trigger On SP item created or modified, and we want to dump the list with several thousand items.

Now if we switch off the flow for that time > dump items > switch on again > will the flow trigger for that many number of times?

Regards,

Hi @Anonymous ,

The answer is yes.

if you turn off the trigger when an item is created or modified of sharepoint connector, the items that is created or modified during that time would also trigger the flow to run when you turn the flow on.

Ok @v-alzhan-msft ,
Since am not aware fully, Please guide me if Trigger conditions can help in this situation and on the SP Item created or modified trigger.
How can we specify the condition if we have a particular text flag in the list "CurrentStage" = "Completed".
Then do not trigger the flow.

Hi @Anonymous ,

You could use the trigger Condition to prevent the flow from trigger for those items created during turned off.

If the sharepoint list has a single line of text column name "ItemStatus", and all the item that you don't want to trigger the flow would have "Completed" value in the "ItemStatus" column, you could add the trigger Condition as below:

@not(equals(triggerBody()?['ItemStatus'],'Completed'))

The trigger Condition could prevent the flow from triggering when an item is created and the single line of text column name "ItemStatus" equal to Completed.
