MS Flow issue - Events Item Created and Modified are triggered at the same time

[MARCEL MEDINA]

Hi,

I have created 2 flows for an OOTB SharePoint List, one that is triggered when an item is added (created), and the other for when the item is updated (modified).

In a weird manner, both are triggered when a new item is added. This is easy to simulate yourself, add a "Send email" with the ID of the item on the Item added and item updated flows, and you'll see the issue by getting both emails at the same time.

My question is, what happens internally that makes an update event being triggered? That shouldn't happen. And how to workaround this issue?

Has anyone raised that before?

Cheers,

Marcel

Hi @MARCEL MEDINA,

You could try to chnage the flow that is triggered by the change of the item. Try adding a Condition Step whcih compares Created with Modified. If they are not equal then run the flow and otherwise do nothing.

Thanks. That did the trick. :)
