Posted on by Priyanka03

Hi All,

I appreciate if someone can help me in this as i'm learning phase of the automation.

I'm trying to run my flow on both days either 15 of the month or 16th of the month.

This trigger runs on both days and override my folder. I would like to stop the flow if the attachment find on 15th and ot should not go for 16th . if there is no attachment on 15th then it will go for 16th and proceed with next steps if no attachments find on both days then the email has to move it manual folder and terminate or stop the flow.

Thank you so much.

Ok, first for the trigger.

You don't need trigger conditions.
You can use a recurring flow, once per month on the 15th.

Then you use your first condition:
If your condition is met, you can do what you need to do
If not, you have the flow wait for a day (until the 16th)

Then you have your second condition (same as the first one)
But your second option here is to terminate the flow.

So, it seems there are no messages with attachments.

What I think you should do is collect only unread messages and then mark them as read (so you won't grab the same emails on the 16th again)

Are there any unread emails with attachments in your mailbox right now?

ok, so what's the situation now?
Is it it grabbing the email or ignoring it?
Can you post a screenshot of the flow including the trigger?

I used the boolean variable and set it as true so incase if the attachment is not there then i will get an email as i used the exception handling but i would like to move that emails in manual review folder in inbox also the next steps of action should not be performed it should be terminated.. in my screenshot if attachment is not there it was moved to next steps instead of terminate the flow. any suggestion over here if my the flow get failed i have to move emails to manual folder and terminate it

Please delete the trigger conditions. You won't need them. Your recurrence will be once per month on the 15th.

You can add an action Terminate in that branch of the condition... that will terminate your flow.
