Hi @hashik4d,

Try a Filter Array action instead of checking each individual item in a loop. This way you can check for all items at once.

If that Filter Array action comes up empty you can safely create a new work item. You can use a length function in a condition for that check.

Below is an example

length(body('Filter_array'))

is not equal to 0
