Hi Everyone,

I am building flow to remove all old deleted files from recycle bin after 7 days. I have 2 environments one prod and other dev

I have created flow few months back in dev and it was working bit in prod same structure of flow is not working. I am part of site collection admin group.

FLow 1.png

URI: _api/web/RecycleBin?$filter=DirName eq 'sites/SPAdmins/ZZZ'&$select=Id &$select=DeletedDate'

But now it is not filtering the content in recyclebin and giving me any output. I was working earlier.

I even tried all other alternative query

_api/web/RecycleBin

_api/web/RecycleBin?$filter=ID ge 1

_api/web/RecycleBin?$$select=Id &$select=DeletedDate'

Has anything changed ?

Hi @JSINFO

One question, are you getting any errors in prod flow? It seems like somewhere in the flow dev URL is being used that needs to be replaced with prod URL.

I would suggest you to pls check if you have replaced the dev site DirName with the prod one in the filter query:
_api/web/RecycleBin?$filter=DirName eq 'sites/SPAdmins/ZZZ'&$select=Id &$select=DeletedDate'

If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.

Thanks

@ManishSolanki , I checked again but URL is not the issue. There are no errors or output. Can you suggest me URI query for selecting ID and deleted date. because flow is using both to verify which one has to get deleted.
