Date challenge with Flow

Posted on by thanke 33

I am trying to create a flow that kicks off an email on the first of every quarter sucn as Jan 1, April 1st, July 1st, and Oct 1st to send out a reminder email.  Is there a way to create a conditional wait that will kick off on the 1 day of each quarter?

 

Thanks,

 

Todd

    Hi thanke,

     

    Generally, we could run flow on a schedule using the trigger “Recurrence”.

    However, there is a current limit for flow. The run duration for a single flow is 30 days, so if you want to run your flow on 1 day of each quarter, I am afraid that it might be not possible.

     

    Please see more details about the current limitation at here:
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/flow/limits-and-config

     

    There is similar request for increasing the maximum run duration, please consider voting the idea at here:

    Best regards,
    Mabel Mao
