SharePoint "Create New Document Set" runs indefinitely, does not work

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by nlesser

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to use the "Create new document set" action in Power Automate, but it is loading forever - creating a new item in SharePoint has never taken more than a few seconds for me, but this action has been running for 10 minutes with no progress. It isn't throwing any error codes, nor does it seem to be doing anything... is there a known issue with this action, or something that I need to adjust to get it to run? Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi @nlesser,

     

    Can you share a screenshot of your flow setup, specifically the config of the Create new document set action? Can you also share which value you used in the required fields when you were testing?

     

    I am not aware of a known issue, I haven't seen anything listed in the documentation about this action:

    Just tried to reproduce your issue, it created the document set in 2 seconds in my dev environment.
