MS Form with Multiple Optional File Upload Questions

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30
Hello,
 
I am trying to build a flow that will append all the files uploaded to an MS Forms into one file. Because all of the file upload questions are optional, I am trying to use Configure run after with each Parse JSON step to keep the flow going even if the prior step fails because there is no file uploaded. 
 
I am using a scope for each set of parse JSON and Get file content & Append to array variable actions for each optional file upload question.
 
 
There are five of these, and I have set 2-5 to run after any outcome for the preceding step. When I test it, I don't upload a form until the last file upload question. I expect steps 1-4 to run and fail, and for the 5th step to succeed. Instead, the first two steps fail and the flow stops.
These are all the steps in my flow. I am not great at this so I must be missing something obvious. Why does it seem that configure run after isn't working as expected?
