Posted on by SB-20012004-0

I have a flow where i look for files based on a salary number extracted from an Excel table. If the file does not exist, i just want the flow to go to the next loop. However, even though i have added a Scope Action and the flow actually does what it needs to do, I get an error that the Get File Action fails, because it cannot find a a file. Is there a way to make sure the flow does not end i Failed state?

@SB-20012004-0 It's hard to offer any recommendations without seeing your full flow and the logic behind it. Toggle off the New Designer and click each action to expand it. Upload a screenshot of your flow in edit mode.

How are you searching for the files? I don't see a get files action in your flow. And then how do you check if it found a file or not? I don't see any conditions in your flow to do that type of check. As @creativeopinion said, you'll need to show the rest of the flow especially the portion of the flow where you're searching for the document and the logic to see if it found one matching your criteria.

As others have said, we need to see more of your Flow in order to offer a complete answer. That said, you may want to take a look at using the run after feature. Here is a good reference
