Microsoft forms not triggering flow

Like (2) ShareShare

Posted on 26 May 2020 14:38:46 by 12

Hi, I have a flow that was working fine until the last few days. Basically the flow triggers when a response has been provided to a form and stores the data in a SharePoint list. I had made a change to include some steps to convert the data to a PDF document. If I test the flow using previously submitted data the flow works fine and the document is produced, however if I created a new entry using the online form the flow does not trigger at all.

 

I have seen in some previous posts that this may have been an issue a few months back, anyone any ideas?

 

Thanks,

    Microsoft forms not triggering flow
    To ensure your flow uses the correct flow ID, start by editing your form. Open the form and look at the URL in your browser’s address bar. You’ll see something like .../DesignPage.aspx#FormId=KFG....C4u.

    Copy the long ID that appears after FormId=

    Next, open your flow in Power Automate. In your trigger or action, select Enter custom value at the bottom of the pick list, and then paste the previously copied form ID.

    Re: Microsoft forms not triggering flow

    If the flow is built using a trigger based on FormsPro or a CustomerVoice survey, a workaround is to build a trigger based on the row in Dataverse

     

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/dataverse/create-update-delete-trigger

     

    example: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Trigger-for-Dynamics-365-Customer-Voice/td-p/787299

    (You may be able to find other examples with a search on "Customer Voice", "Power Automate", and "Dataverse"

    Worked for me after I turned off the flow and turned it back on. Something seems off and idk if this issue gets repeated but such a silly issue on this big of a platform and these types of issues arise every now and them for me. What a poor platform to rely on tbh.

    My Flow stopped working on the 14 of February. Still does not work today. Frustrating...

    I've just read on another forum that turning the flow off and on again fixed the issue for someone.
    Just tried this on my flows and seemed to have fixed the issue.

    Me too, with several flows for different forms. Very frustrating.
