The power flow's logic app flow template was invalid. The template actions 'Send_an_email_(V2)_4, Update_a_row_4' are nested at level '9' which exceeds the maximum nesting limit of '8'.

I am creating a flow that has a lot of approvals in, 

e.g. If approved, send a confirmation email, update a row in excel then start the next stage of the Approval process. 

If rejected, update a row in excel then the flow ends.

Problem i am having is that after putting in 4 approvals and attempting to save my flow i get the following error.

The power flow's logic app flow template was invalid. The template actions 'Send_an_email_(V2)_4, Update_a_row_4' are nested at level '9' which exceeds the maximum nesting limit of '8'.

Is there a way to get exceed the maximum nesting limit of 8? As not only do i want to save what i currently have in my flow i need to add more approvals.

Hi @Aazza,

Nesting limit is 8.

You can run the approvals action in a for loop to avoid creating nested conditions.

Here is one example: https://youtu.be/gb_FUeRjgg4

Hi @RezaDorrani 

Thank you for the reply,

Have just watched your video and it has been of great help. Been able to fix my flow so it functions just the way i want it to.

Kind regards,
