    That should be possible. One question, do you delete items from the list? If not, then just add a filter query where ID gt 300.
     
    If items can be deleted, you'll use a similar filter query, but you will need to calculate the number for the gt condition. To do that:
    • Add an integer variable and name it FilterValue
    • Add a Get items action to your list and sort it by ID asc and limit it to returning 300 items
    • Add a condition and use a length expression to check that 300 items were returned.
      • ​​​​​​​If less than 300 items are returned, then no exclusion is required.
      • This isn't needed if you know your list already has more than 300 items.
    • Add a Set variable action and set the FilterValue to the value of the 300th item.
      • This expression should work: int(body('Get_items')?['value'][299]?['ID'])
    • You can then add another Get items action and filter it to where ID gt FilterValue
    I have not tested this, but it should work.

    hi,
    skip(outputs('Get_items')?['body/value'], 300) function is working. thank you for your support. :)
