Azure Serverless SQL with PowerApp

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 38

Hello,

 

For some background context, I am building an app with the back end as an Azure SQL Database on the serverless tier. The issue is that the serverless DB's go on "pause" or "inactivity" mode after some time, usually 1 hour. Because of this, whenever I login in the morning, or after 1+ hr of inactivity, my flows will fail the first time I use them, resulting in failed processes, but then works after the first time if the user cancels and retries. 

 

I have a form submit that uses some patches and a flow, but this flow always fails during those times because of the Azure serverless DB.

 

Is there a way around this using powerapps, something like sending a dummy message? I attached a screenshot here, it shows that when my code gets to the flow it's just a dead end and never continues on even though I get a "Success code 202" message back.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
