Dear All, Created a recurring flow to update manager details. Apparently flow is updating all entries with one manager details.
When my flow is executed, it updates all entries with manager email from the latest execution. As per below data, all list items is with updated with manager as 'Manager-1"
Appreciate if you could advise where the problem is. Whether in the iteration or passing the manager value
Sample Data:
Employee Name | Employee Manager |
Person-1 | Manager-1 |
Person-2 | Manager-2 |
Person-3 | Manager-1 |
My Flow Snapshot :
@efialttes Thanks. It's Resolved. Not sure if my observation was right. One instance was 'In Progress' at the same time I made amendments. Possibly hence it had not taken effect. After all the execution was completed, amended settings again by changing Top Count it got applied successfully.
@efialttes Enabled Pagination and set to 5000. Also tried updating Top count to 5000. Either ways it's going to default and settings are getting vanished
@efialttes When I apply flow against real time SharePoint List, it's updating manager details until 100th row. Is there any restriction as to only No. of row flow can update ? Please advise.
Hi!
I also struggled with such scenarios for a long time, unfortunatelly Flow editor and Filter array are not good friends.
THen one day I realized if you first define your 'Apply to each' assigning 'Filter array' input (in your case 'Get items' output) as 'Apply to each' input, and once everything is configured, you replace it and assign 'Filter array' output instead, then the magic is done.
Glad to help!
@efialttes Unsure what type of magic is this as you mentioned. It worked like a charm. Thanks a lot
Any suggestions please ?
No luck. Here is the modified flow :
Hi!
AS I suggested before:
-Remove temporarily 'Filter array' output assigned to 'Apply to each' input, assign 'Get items' output instead
-Now, configure 'Get manager' inputs by selecting dynamic contents from the dynamic content menu. THis way you do not need to add expressions, Flow editor will do the magic
-Now, configure 'Update item' inputs by selecting dynamic contents from the dynamic content menu. THis way you do not need to add expressions, Flow editor will do the magic
-Once 'Get manager' and 'Update item' inputs are configured, remove 'Get items' output assigned to 'Apply to each' input, assign 'Filter array' instead
Please also note your Filter Array condition rule looks empty
Hope this makes sense
Encountered Error at 'Get Manager'
