FLOW TRIGGERING TWICE

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 17
Hello! I'm building an automated flow where a flow is trigger when a file is modified (specifically when a specific column is updated)
 
 
However, my flows keeps on triggering twice (almost simultaneously). There is no apply to each in the whole flow.
 
I've tried recreating the whole flow from scratch since I read somewhere that the flow itself might be the issues but the flow is still triggering twice. Can anyone help? I'll be adding more actions (sending emails) so I cant have the flow trigger twice.

    Is that your complete flow or is there more that you are not showing? If what you show is the complete flow, I don't see anything that would cause the flow to trigger again unless someone is modifying the file. If you have versioning turned on in your list, you may want to check the version history to see if the modified dates align with the run history. And how do you know all of the runs are from the same file?

    Put eyes on the Version HIstory for the document. This won't solve your problem, but it may shed light on what's causing the multiple triggers. 
     
    Whilst we're spitballing, are there any other Flows triggering that are performing updates?

    Hello! I was able to fix this on my own by just deactivating the old flow and creating a new one with a trigger that doesnt include "properties only". Somehow worked.
     
    I have other flows that doesnt trigger twice, it's really just this one.
