For a Selected Item - Get Item - Wrong ID (Flow adds 100000000 to ID) Sharepoint List

Posted on by rdehart

As the subject states, I've got about a dozen flows which are triggered from a button on a sharepoint list.

For a Selected Item > Get Item
Automate seems to be prefixing the ID number with '100000000' so ID 5 is pulled into the flow as 100000005, resulting in a 'Item not found' 404 error.

These flows have all been working for at least 6 months. The problem also seems intermittent and is present in multiple different lists on separate sites. Sometimes it gets the right id, sometimes not.

Looks like this trigger is the culprit. Output from the For a Selected Item has the same.
Seems like I also saw this about a year ago and it cleared up on it's own.

I have seen that too, but it is shortlived. Add a small delay to your flow after adding an item (five seconds should be enough) and the id should have calmed down and be ready to use
