I have set the Limit columns by view to unlimited, show all columns, but it just turns itself off.
Regardless of this setting, the compose at the top can see the column target_id, but the "Update group in main list" action cannot. However, the action at the very bottom CAN see it. No idea why, so I used a compose action to get around it. I'd love to clean this up.
@Justanotherguy2 Have you tried using the Classic Designer? The new designer is very buggy still. I would recommend adding Trigger Conditions to your flow trigger. This way your flow will only trigger when you want it to trigger. Without a trigger condition, your flow will trigger each time an item is created or modified—which is probably not what you want.
If you only want to trigger your flow when an item is created—use the When an Item is Created trigger. If you only want to trigger your flow when an item is modified—use the When an Item or file is modified trigger.

If you are using an Automated Cloud flow trigger in your flow—you need to consider adding trigger conditions.
Do YOU 🫵 know what a trigger condition is? Trigger conditions can be set in most flow triggers. These conditions you set must be true for the trigger to fire. In this Power Automate tutorial, I’m going to show you how to use trigger conditions in your flows to control when your Power Automate flows trigger.
If your plan has flow run limits—you can avoid triggering your flows unnecessarily by using trigger conditions.
I’ll cover four different flow examples that would benefit from trigger conditions:
⚡️ Triggering a flow when a column is changed to a specific value
⚡️ Triggering a Flow When an Event Updated or Deleted
⚡️ Triggering a Flow When a New Folder is Created
⚡️ Triggering a Flow When a Specific Email is Received I’ll also show you a trick on how to easily create the expressions needed and give you a few tips on how to troubleshoot your flow.
