@IoanaNic23 Can you explain the logic of your flow? Currently you are using the for a selected row trigger. This means that your flow would only trigger for a single row (at a time).
I wouldn't recommend using an Apply to Each action and Condition action to loop through every single file listed in your folder. This is inefficient. Instead, you should consider using a Filter Array action. With a Filter Array action you can quickly check to see if any files match your condition and continue on with your flow. The way you currently have it set up is that your flow will loop through every single file to see if there is a match.
To learn more about how to use the Filter Array action, please refer to this YT Tutorial: Are you using the Microsoft Power Automate Filter Array Action wrong?
In this video tutorial I’ll show you 3 practical ways to use the Filter Array action and how to use it properly.
1️⃣ Cross-Referencing Data
2️⃣ Filtering by Key
3️⃣ Substring Matching
Did you know that the Condition action has a limit of 10 conditions? Although it might look like the Filter Array action can only accept one condition—this is not true. By using the advanced mode you can enter multiple conditions into a Filter Array action with an expression.
