I am trying to create a Flow to pull a birthday event from Outlook 365 and post a Happy Birthday message in a Microsoft Teams channel.

The Flow works, but it posts it multiple times in the channel!

Can someone please help? Thank you.

Hi @grantfuhr

Thanks for the update. Check your run history steps and see why it's repeating 10 times?

Thank you for replying. I removed one of the triggers and now the message is posted about 10 times! Is there a loop that I'm missing?

Thanks again for any help you can provide.

Hi @grantfuhr

How did you managed to add two triggers? It's not possible to add two triggers in Flow.

Try removing the first recurrence trigger and try.

Thanks
