    I have been struggling with this batch feature for two days now…this is the first piece of content that made me realize that all batch posts need to use the POST method. Definitely gonna see if I can make it work tomorrow when I get to work.
    Thanks buddy!

    Hi Deepak! It is an excellent video with neat explanation about the batch API concept. I went through lot of articles before i saw your video and none of those articles explain the details of the entire request so well.
    I have a query.. actually an issue -- I am getting this error in executing the flow
    Error - The message header '--changeset_XXXXXXXX' is invalid. The header value must be of the format ': '.

    Hi Deepak, your explanation makes it really easy to understand. If i want to update the Sharepoint List, are the steps similar (with the added logic of finding the same ID) and does it use the Patch instead? Do you have a video explaining the edit using $batch?
    Many thanks!!

    Hi Deepak, very well explained, thanks. What would be the approach if the excel contained 10K+ rows, as I understand each batch will handle up to 1000 rows, so are we considering creating more than 10 changesets?

  • @anjanchidige

    Very well explained. In case of exceptions, how do we find, which row failed out of total 1000 rows? does SharePoint provides the list of all failed rows?

    Hi Deepak, Great video, very thorough explanation. It took a while but I got there. POST BATCH requires a lot of attention to detail. The inclusion of an additional or missing 'spaces' and 'enter/new lines' really messes things up. I have 2 questions I hope you can help with: How did you add the "new line" character in the Join? I ended up creating a 'new line' variable (by pressing enter) and used that in the join. How would you POST metadata from an excel Date field to a sharepoint date field?

    • @DeepakShrivastava
      @DeepakShrivastava  3 года назад

      Thanks for watching. Yes, it's a bit complex to get the payload ready (especially in FLOW :)). I used the same approach as yours pressing Enter key. You can also create a variable with a 'new line' character.
      Regarding Excel date field i have covered this in my another video ruclips.net/video/q0mDHXRfU-A/видео.html

      @@DeepakShrivastava Hi Deepak, thanks again. How would you recommend handling a blank/empty/null fields in excel (particularly date and number fields)? If there is a null in any field then the entire row is not added to sharepoint. The only solution I have come across is to have a Condition and if the field is blank then have a separate POST BATCH for that row/item where that field is not included it in the POST BATCH metadata. I would end up having many conditions to cater for all the columns could have a blank. Is there a better way?

    Hi Deepak, great video, but I have error in my flow. I made each steps like you and had this error: The header ‘Content-Type’ was specified multiple times. Each header must only once in a batch part. Please can you help me with that?

  • @mohammedmerchant5628
    @mohammedmerchant5628 2 месяца назад

    Hi Deepak, the space in the header was important, it worked like you said by pressing 'Enter' after "binary". I took a sample data with 1000 records, the flow ran and created 750 records in SP List only. Wondering the reason for data getting skipped? Please advise.

    What if we have more than 1K records in excel, How to deal with them using batch?

    • @DeepakShrivastava
      @DeepakShrivastava  3 года назад +1

      Thanks Kamran. If you have more than 1K record you should create another "Changeset Guid" and use it for next 1K records.

    Hi Deepak, How would you recommend handling an excel file with more an 5000 rows (say 44,000). Thanks

    • @DeepakShrivastava
      @DeepakShrivastava  3 года назад

      It would be best to be careful when you do a large operation in Power Automate, as every action counts as one API call. If you plan to process excel with 44K rows, I would suggest upgrading to per-flow license for better performance.

      Hi Aakash, Make sure you format the Header with correct spaces (new line character) , it happens if request JSON not formatted correctly.
      Here is a sample header:

      I modified the POST compose action slightly and it worked.
      However still seeing intermittent timeout expired issue. (Eg: Out of 1000 items 10 got timeout expired and only 990 items were created).

    Hi Deepak - awesome video. I followed all steps exactly and even imported your flow. All runs great and I receive a confirmation. But when I review the sharepoint Output, I see (“status code: 200, “headers”:(“transfer encoding”:chunked”, “vary”, :”origin”) and I do not see the content on my list. Please note that up until this point, fhe flow is running correctly as I can see the data throughout my flow. So, I am not sure how to pin-point the issue. You would absolutely be a life saver and save me over 10 hours of work each week if you can assist with this matter. Thank you in advance for your review and consideration.

    • @DeepakShrivastava

    Nice video, small question though, isn't it make more sense to make the definitions inside power automate? Make it run in parallel etc.?
    I would understand if the time decreasing would be at least 10 times lower.
    All that procedure for 1/3 of the time. I probably have missed something.
    Thanks!

    • @DeepakShrivastava
      @DeepakShrivastava  3 года назад +1

      Yes, you can do it also, but you need to consider the number of actions because there is per day API limit(number of actions you have in a flow) for a user, and once you cross it, flow performance degrades.
