I built a bigger Power Automate Solution which contais two flows:
-
First: Parent Flow for getting all the data and transforming correctly and calling the ChildFlow for each object
-
Second: Child Flow for further processing of the data and updating the item
First of all, I would like to mention that I do not have a special license and only have the standard Microsoft 365 license.
Current situation: I have recently completed and tested my flows. During execution, it can happen that up to 60 objects are captured by the parent flow, which are then passed on to the child flow in a loop for further processing. The child flow contains over 100 actions that are executed each time the parent flow is called.
Now to the problem: When I execute the parent flow (a complete run can take up to 4 hours including child flow executions) I get a pattern of about 4 – 7 successful executions of the child flow, followed by about 4 – 7 incorrect executions of the child flow. What puzzles me here is that with each faulty execution, the flow fails on a different action (which ran through without error in the previous execution) and that each of these executions shows “Network Error” as the reason for the failure. I have checked the individual actions in isolation and there does not seem to be a problem with the logic here.
Could it be that the actions are no longer being executed due to too many actions and a license that is too low? What are the possible reasons for this?
