Hello,

 

I have a flow that I would like to run twice a week.

-Wednesday at 3pm

-8am and 12pm on Thursday

 

I tried  a flow below but it does not seem right. Any suggestions?

    @Jcook Thanks. That seems to be the only solution seeing that I do not have the premium version.

    Hello @Anonymous 

     

    Here is Documentation on Child Flows:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/create-child-flows#:~:text=Create%20the%20child%20flow%20in%20a%20solution%20Sign,%3E%20Button%20flow%20%3E%20Manually%20trigger%20a%20flow.

    Note that this requires a Premium License.

     

     

    If you're looking for a way without Premium license, you could use a workaround where you Save a Copy of the Flow. And have:

    One Flow - Trigger on Wednesday at 3pm, with the Recurrence trigger

    The Second Flow - Trigger on Thursday at 8am and 12pm, with Recurrence trigger

    Hello @Anonymous 

     

    Since you have different time intervals for 2 different days. I would suggest using 3 Flows.

     

    The flow you are showing as your main flow.

    2 secondary flows that trigger the main flow (call child flow) With one recurring every Wednesday at 3pm, and one recurring every Thursday at 8am and 12pm
