Scheduled flow to move an item from one SP list to another SP list - not following my condition

[bryanc78]

So I have a SP list that is getting too large to manage so I'm wanting to move older items off of it and onto an "archive" list.  My flow is set up as follows:

Recurrence - 11PM every night

Get Items -  items from the main SP list

Apply to each - value

Condition - when my date column is less than or equal to utcNow().  This date column is set to show a date that is 6 months after the SP item was created.  So, if the item was created on 1/1/2019, then this column will show 7/1/2019 and thus, the condition is true to be moved (If Yes) If this date is say 12/1/2019, then it should not be moved as it does not meet the condition.  Now, I do not have a If No condition.

Create Item - create item in the archive SP list

Delete Item - delete item from main list

My problem I'm having is all items are being impacted, even items that do not meet the condition

Hi @bryanc78 

Try using the formatDateTime expression for both conditions to same format and compare

formatDateTime(utcnow(), 'yyyy-MM-dd')

So, while that worked and is moving items.  My flow has cycled through multiple times in the last 2 hours and has not picked up any new items even though I have a ton still to get through.  Is the flow just going thorugh 100 at a time and just happened to not find any that matched the condition?

Hi @bryanc78 

Get items will return only 100 items if you left the Top count field blank. See this post
