One drive for business automatic trigger is not reliable

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Hello,

 

I created a flow that is automatically triggered when a new file is copied or moved in a specific folder in my One Drive for business.

 

At the start of this week, the flow was working beautifully with no issues.

 

Suddenly, 2 days ago, it started to be unreliable. I would add a file in the folder and it would not pick it up. Maybe I wait an hour and then it picks it up. Next morning, it works perfectly, then suddenly doesn't work any more.

 

Now it has done it again, 3 perfect executions and suddenly now the file doesn't trigger the flow.

 

I believe the only thing that changed was that I shared that folder with another user, but it still works sometimes irrespectively if I add the file or the other user does it. It just doesn't seem reliable.

 

Has somebody experienced something similar? Is somebody using One Drive with no issues? Is this a known issue?

 

Thanks,

Marc

    yes @MarcB  this is a common issue, I sugest you to user the last versions to pervent it, or just wait. If the trigger is working bad for weeks please open a Microsoft support case.
