Posted on by 153

Hi All,

I have issue. I have flow with SharePoint List.

Now, I am to do stress test for add 5 items in SharePoint List with parallel submission. 3 items success update to new status. 2 items, flow runs for a long time and takes an estimated 2-3 minutes to flow ran successfully.

But, when I see JSON showing error:

Error:

{
"error": {
"code": "BadRequest",
"message": "Http request failed with status code 'ConnectFailure' and status message: 'Unable to connect to the remote server'."
}
}
 
And then network connection in here, showing: "A web page is slowing down your browser. What would you like to do"

Can I ask for a request HTTP time-out added on? And whether this has any influence with the internet network
 
Please advice. Thanks guys..

    Hi @krfajar 

     

    Are you inserting the information all in the same SharePoint list correct?

     

    I think you're running into a race condition where somewhere SharePoint is trying to do something but is locked and creates some sort of deadlock. It could be, for example, the ID generation where it has to ensure that the ID is unique.

     

    I would recommend using parallel actions only when you're doing actions that are not related and can be done at the same time for performance reasons. If you want to bulk insert data, especially in the same list, to avoid issues, I would recommend doing it sequentially. 

     

    If I have answered your question, please mark your post as Solved.
