Duplicate data entry into list from Forms

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I have an existing flow that moves data from a Forms input to a list in Sharepoint when a new response is created.  The issue that I'm having is that the data is now being duplicated.  It appears the flow runs twice.  I've seen some posts comment on using the length function in a condition however, I'm not sure how to apply it.  

I think the condition should trigger on the Response ID as that is the Title field in the table that is being duplicated.  Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Hi @ADCA,

    I think you could configure a flow as below:

    You could check the title or other field that both of form and SP list share, if it exists in list, then you update the existing item, if it does not exist, create a new item.
