Flow not Triggering OnSuccess

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by tmergaert

I've been following a tutorial to create a flow for my PowerApp that updates the status of my form and then sends an email to the users identified within the form. The PowerApps (V2) gathers a number input called getItem which is then used in the subsequent steps.

This is the code I use to try and run the flow OnSuccess of the form: FlowName.Run(Form1.LastSubmit.ID);

However, whenever I test my power app, the flow is not triggered and there are no occurrences listed in the run history. Any suggestions on what can be done to get the flow to be triggered?

Thanks!

Tash

Hi @tmergaert ,

Firstly it should run if it is turned on and you only have one numeric parameter being the ID of the Item you are updating and you have hard-coded everything else to be done in the Flow. You can refer to the Form like this

FlowName.Run(Self.LastSubmit.ID);

but I do not think this is the issue. Have you run a Monitor session on this ? Also you might try putting a Notify message after the flow run to see if the OnSuccess executes.

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

Hi @WarrenBelz,

So Notify does work OnSuccess, however I can't seem to get to the flow to execute at the same time. It will execute if I code it in OnSelect for a button control.

@tmergaert ,

Did you put the Notify after the flow run. Also does the Monitor say the flow ran or had an error ?

So I played around with the formulas and I tried a two things that made the flow trigger OnSuccess:
After SubmitForm(FormName), I had it navigate to a view form page, I removed that function and triggered it to run after the flow OnSuccess.
I moved the Flow to trigger before all other formulas (e.g., notify, navigate).
When using the monitor session is shows the flow ran successfully.
