    @Madhukiran we can't provide a solution without seeing screenshots of your flow which will give us an idea of why the infinite loop is happening.

    @Madhukiran as you've deleted the flow it will not continue to run.

    @RobElliott  i can see that flow still updating my Sharepoint LIST...will is stop once it reaches the final RUN?

    soo that means once we delete the flow in power automate it wont update anything in Sharepoint list data

    @Madhukiran if you've set the concurrency to 1 then any flows in the queue will probably still run (although I've never tested that). But apart from that deleting or turning off a flow stops it running.
