Strange Scenario

New to PA but many many years of developing, was going to do this is in Django, but then was told can do it in PA..... Hmm

 

It really is the simplest of flows, Manually triggered, GET FILES (Properties) ODATA Filter 'startswith(FileLeafRef, '._')' then delete against filter.

 

This worked fine for the first 1408 files, then just stopped, and no matter what I cannot get a response back from Filter, even if I create a file with the prefix of '._'

 

It worked fine, I am not sure of the limitations insofar as licence etc with PA, but this seems odd...

 

To be clear, the FLOW worked fine, nothing has changed, nested items are EXPLICITLY included, but even if I create a document in the Docs root '._Test.docx' and use the ODATA 'FileLeafRef eq '._Test.docx'' the output does not contain the file.

 

I am puzzled, any help would be great.
