I am currently entering an item into a SharePoint list and then from the list I am initiating a workflow.
The workflow starts but wont continue and seems to be stuck at update item.
I am new to Power Automate and hope to learn this tool quickly now that SP 2010 Workflows will be removed by 11/01/2020.
Thx for the help!
The error appears after the error checker runs. Until you try to save it after making changes the error checker doesn't update, so the error doesn't go away until you manually run the error checker or try to save.
Hello,
Ok, I assumed that when the error appeard and a red dot showed up at the left telling me my workflow had an error, I would not be able to save it.
I was able to save the workflow!
Thank you for your assistance.
Have you saved it and tried running it after the changes? AS you can see below I'm using the same two things in a flow with no error. I suspect it must be a false positive based on the changes that have been made.
Here I have one trigger - "For a Selected Items"
Here I have one action - "Send an Email Notification"
Without "When an Item is Created" I see the following:
I have no dynamic content without "When an Item is Created" trigger.
Any other ideas as to which direction I need to go?
The error is because you've removed all the actions and left only the trigger. A flow must contain one trigger and one or more actions. Add an action of some type and the error should go away.
If you want to trigger one flow manually and another automatically then you need two separate flows. You can't do them as a single flow like you could in SPD.
f I remove everything beside the first trigger then I get the missing trigger error above.
It looks like you are using two triggers in your flow, both For a selected item and when an item is created. That won't work. There are very rare cases where you can use a second trigger, but in general you only use one trigger per flow. Either it is initiated when a new item is created or manually when you select a specific item, but not both. You are kicking the flow off manually, but then it is waiting for that item to be created. Since it already exists it will just sit there. Remove the duplicate trigger.
In SPD you could have multiple startup conditions, but in flow you only have one trigger.
