When a new email arrives (V3): "Flow run timed out because the starting action was not performed. "

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 4

I created a simple one trigger and one action flow, but the manual test never succeeds when I am sending a bunch of emails that meet the condition "Folder: VIP Escalations". It says "Flow run timed out because the starting action was not performed. " Could someone please help?

 

Here is the code for the "when a new email arrives" trigger-

 
{

"type": "OpenApiConnectionNotification",

"inputs": {

"parameters": {

"includeAttachments": false,

"importance": "Any",

"fetchOnlyWithAttachment": false,

"folderPath": "Id::AQMkADA0YTYxMDJjLTlhODctNGNlOC1iNWM5LWRjNWI1YmZjNTJjMQAuAAADKzfKJQTA3EGPl04TT0DXNAEACA59iLZsKEy6x0b5gUs0jQAGszhGfAAAAA=="

},

"host": {

"apiId": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_office365",

"connection": "shared_office365",

"operationId": "OnNewEmailV3"

}

},

"conditions": [],

"splitOn": "@triggerOutputs()?['body/value']",

"metadata": {

"Id::AQMkADA0YTYxMDJjLTlhODctNGNlOC1iNWM5LWRjNWI1YmZjNTJjMQAuAAADKzfKJQTA3EGPl04TT0DXNAEACA59iLZsKEy6x0b5gUs0jQAGszhGfAAAAA==": "VIP Escalation",

"operationMetadataId": "47e37a0f-ef6e-4df7-b59f-dd333ea7c159"

}

}

    Thanks again Bof! However it is still not working. I give up on the custom folder and just used "inbox" and it works.

    So, I make a test and the result is it's working fine. So, I sent 20 emails at the same time into the folder, and it's run every time.

    And it could be helpful if you can share some more detail about the problem.
