I have a flow that is triggered when a Dynamics record is created or updated, but it either takes absolutely ages to trigger (20+ mins), when it says it should take 1 minute, or it doesn't trigger until I go to the flow and turn it off and back on again.
I had the same for another flow that was supposed to be triggered at 5pm last night, when I checked it at 18:30, it hadn't run, turned it off and back on and it ran straight away (even though it was way past 5pm) so what is happening here, why are my flows not starting, and why does the trigger seem to be cached somewhere until I turn the flow off and back on?
This unreliability makes it very difficult to demonstrate it's potential to any senior members of staff.
Can you give example of what you are trying to do ? I am able to work well with flows and they all work.
Maybe I can help.
I am having a similar problem.
I wrote a flow which is triggered by a recurrent schedule and refers to dates on an excel file domiciled on Sharepoint for it to run.
I have tested it and its fine whenever tested. However, it always sends a reminder a day late after the scheduled dates, and sometime when i go back to edit or tweak the excel document, it fails to pick the dates and sometime it wont even trigger at all. Keeping in mind that I have implemented all that was said earlier in this thread.
I was almost inviting the execs after the test was successful only for it to send the reminder late.
Can someone please help
Hi

Thanks

What is the solution to the flow not getting triggered (not the recurring flow)?
I am facing similar issue.
When I am in the test mode of the flow, it triggers immediately, but outside test mode, it is not getting triggered unless I do a blank edit and save of the flow.
Please help as this is blocking our design.
Hi @v-yuazh-msft,
Yes, it's set for 17:00, and the Time Zone is set to UTC+00:00 - It definitely seems to be supported to select a Time Zone in the Recurrence trigger according to the UI that comes with it, and it did start running an hour earlier when I selected the correct time zone.
Granted as we are on British Summer Time right now, we are an hour ahead, but then I would expect it to run an hour earlier, not 35 minutes late.
Thank you for the help, it's much appreciated.
Hi @NickDewitt,
Do you set the flow run at 17:00 in your flow?
The trigger "Recurrence" trigger would run the flow with the time that you scheduled with UTC time.
However, the scheduled time in the "Recurrence" trigger could only support the UTC time and schedule a flow with a local time is not supported in microsoft flow currently.
All times in Microsoft Flow are in Universal Time by default
You could refer to link below to know the UTC time now:
