Split an EntityCollection into batches and call unbound action

Posted on by 491 Power Up Champ - 2025

Hi Folks,

 

We have a requirement as below..

 

There were more than 10,000 contact records in Dataverse, based on some conditions, we need to create phone call activities for each of the contact. 

 

We need to call the action in dataverse from Power Automate and create the phone call records. This is just to reduce the number of API calls in Power Automate.

 

For this action, we need to pass an entity collection of contacts say around 500 records each so that can be processed within 2 mins in the dataverse. But we were using Pagination to retrieve 5000 records in Power Automate, please suggest if there is a way to split them into a Entity Collection of 500 each and to pass on to action in dataverse for further creation.

 

Any help is appreciated.
