Deleted workflow is running in a infinite loop

Posted on by 4
I have deleted a workflow which was perhaps in a running mode. Now it has gone to some infinite loop and sends messages to the teams everyday, Since I deleted it, I cannot find it anywhere under workflows now. I don't know how can I stop this workflow. Please help me.

    Hi @KS-12031911-0
    • Check for orphaned or hidden flows:

      • Sometimes flows get orphaned or hidden due to environment sync issues.

      • Go to Power Automate portal → My Flows → Check under All Flows, Team Flows, and Deleted Flows (Recycle Bin).

      • Restore or permanently delete any flows related to the one you deleted.

    • Check for other flows or connectors:

      • Verify if there are other flows or connectors (like Logic Apps, Azure Automation, or PowerShell scripts) that might be sending those messages.

      • Sometimes a flow is copied or recreated under a different name.

    • Check Power Automate Run History:

      • In Power Automate portal, check the run history for all flows in your environment.

      • Look for any flow runs that correspond to the message sending time.

      • This can help identify which flow or process is sending the messages.

    • Clear browser cache and refresh:

      • Sometimes UI glitches cause flows to appear deleted but still active.

      • Clear cache or try a different browser.

    • Contact Microsoft Support:

      • If the flow is truly deleted but still running or triggering, this is a backend issue.

      • Open a support ticket with Microsoft to investigate and clear any stuck triggers or cached runs.

    • Temporarily disable connectors or permissions:

      • As a last resort, disable or remove permissions for the connectors or accounts used by the flow to stop the messages.
