Trigger for large number of files created

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 3

I am doing a flow where files are moved to different folders based on their name.

The trigger is when a file is created in a specific folder.

 

I has been working perfectly for a few files at a time. However, when I try to use it for 75 files, there are a few of them which are left. It looks like they are not even considered by the flow.

    According to the documentation about limits, the number of concurrent runs is unlimited if the control is turned off. And it is turned off for my flow here.

    Hi @Merlin4 

     

    I think you are hitting the throttling limits for number of runs in a day or number of runs in an hour. 

     

    You could try running a flow on schedule where the flow runs every hour (select a recurrence based on your requirement) and then list files and perform the action based on the logic. This will ensure that all files are processed properly. 

     

    Hope this Helps!
