I have a flow that runs when an email is flagged which runs completely fine but later on the flow runs by itself without the triggered being activated. It runs using information which already has been extracted. Any tips on how to stop the flow from running by itself so it doesn't consume credits?

Using flows

@flavioz Can you share a screenshot of your flow? Also, have you considered using Trigger Conditions in your flow? I cover how to do that in this section of a recent YT Tutorial I uploaded. Although, my flow uses the When a New Email arrives trigger, you can apply the same concept to the When an email is flagged trigger.
