    Hi @kannan1 

     

    You can try the following:

    1. Get all items

    2. Find the ones with the title with lesser than 12 characters

    length(items('Apply_to_each')?['Title'])

     3. Filter using an OData query for the title

    Title eq '@{items('Apply_to_each')?['Title']}'

    4. Update the information

     

    Here's the full view. You can use either Scheduled or Manual trigger, and it works the same.
