"Get Items" fetching outdated info from SharePoint list.

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have a flow which runs every two hours and checks a SharePoint list to see if a contract should be generated.

This flow pulls items from this list based on whether or not the number of contracts generated from the record is equal to zero.

At the end of the flow, should other conditions be met and a contract generated, the record's "Contracts Generated" is increased by one, which should stop that record from being fetched by "Get Items."

Except it's not, not all the time. Many times, it works as intended. For other records, seemingly at random, it pulls outdated information from when the record's "Contracts Generated" value was still equal to zero, including other fields that are updated when a contract is updated. Manually checking the SharePoint list shows that the lists were updated appropriately and "Contracts Generated" is not equal to zero. 

So why is "Get Items" pulling outdated info from SharePoint?

    I seem to have fixed the issue by deleting the "Get Items" connector and rebuilding it from scratched.

    Would still like to know why it happened though, if anyone can help.
