Hi,
I have a flow triggered with 'When a file is created (Properties only)'. When I enable the flow hundreds of flows start to be processed.
But these documents were already in the document library before the flow was enabled.
Example file created dates from the flow data are for example:
2019-03-31T21:22:04Z and the flow time it ran at 4/2/2019 5:17:10 PM
The flows been disabled for a while. I asume that it's not been keeping a backlog to process?
Any ideas?
Best Regards
Tim
Hi @Willemijn,
Thanks. I ended up exporting the flow deleting the old one and reimporting it.
We also did a file migration over the weekend and it appeared all these were queued up whilst the flow was disabled.
Thanks
Tim
Hi Tim,
I had the same issue a while back. When you disable a Flow, it keeps the instances that would trigger the Flow for a certain time (don't know how long) and when you enable the Flow again it will run with all those instances. It is not logical I think but it is what happens.
In my case it was during a migration and what I did was not disable the Flow, but add the action 'Terminate' in the Flow before migrating the stuff in my list. The Flow is still running then but it's not doing the actions behind it. Another option could be; make the Flow and test it, disable the Flow, create all instances. Save a copy of your Flow, enable that one and delete the original.
Hope this helps.
