Randomly slow flow (email trigger)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Hello,

        I have a relatively simple multi-stage workflow, and for the most part it works great, but seems like it randomly gets stuck/delayed. For example, the email that is sent (after MS Forms submission) for first approval request is delayed by 30 minutes to hours. If I try to trigger another flow by forms submission at the same time this one will run instantly. I looked into possible licensing limitations but we are a small shop, our daily triggers on average are 2-3. Other things are constant also, such as only PDF files attached

Any suggestions for:

1. How to even troubleshoot this issue, because I can't reliably re-produce this delay

2. What could be causing this?

Thanks

    Additional info, I am using Send an email(V2) and I noticed V3 is now available, could that be a reason?

    @Zak2234 if you use v3 then you may face delay. V2 is correct choice for this. Can you share your flow screens?
