I set a do until loop to get all items in a document library, however, the variable exceeds the limit?
What does this mean? And what's can be the solution?
Appreciated in advanced
Hi @TYu036,
It looks like you are hitting a Power Automate limit, as described in the documentation the limit of a message is 100 MB:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/limits-and-config#message-size
Encodian also has a good explanation about it:
https://www.encodian.com/blog/power-automate-error-maximum-buffer-size-exeeded/
Thanks for the information. I am also told that not all the actions have the chunking option. In my case, there's no chunking option for get items (properties only).
May be the only hope is to decrease the properties data.
Hi there, I have a similar problem to this but the file is generated from a form. The example on the Encodian blog seems like a good solution (to chunk) but this option isn't in any of the settings on my flow as there is no 'Create file' - it is generated from the form then copied. Any suggestions?
