I ran into a wierd scenerio.

I have a flow enabled on list which runs on item added/ Modified.

I disabled the flow, Did bulk update on list items using CSOM and after some time when i enabled the flow. Lot of instances of flow started running. May be because of bulk update but ideally it should not have triggered when i kept it disabled.

Have anyone faced this ?? Why this is happening ?

Hi @manjotsingh057,

The issue is confirmed on my side. I think the flow is avoided to run when you disable the flow, but the trigger has occurred actually.

The user @DRak has faced similar issue, please check the following thread:

https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Flow-Discussion/How-to-avoid-triggering-Sharepoint-New-Item-after-enabling/m-p/42265/highlight/true#M7756

If you want to avoid triggering the flow for some updates in your SharePoint list when you change the status of the flow from disabled into enabled currently, you could consider delete the flow and re-create it.

Best regards,

Kris

Thanks Kris for the confirmation.

Also have you observed any delay in flow getting triggered when connected to On-Premise list ?
