π Stop using loops in Power Automate if you want faster flows and fewer actions.
Power Automate performance matters β especially when working with large data.
If you're using Apply to each loops in Power Automate, your flows can become slow, expensive, and hard to scale.
β Slow performance (minutes β hours)
β High action counts (cost + limits)
β Poor scalability in real-world scenarios
π‘ In this Power Automate tutorial, youβll learn how to build faster flows with fewer actions by avoiding inefficient loops.
β‘ Parallel processing
β‘ Expressions instead of iteration
β‘ Data Operation actions for bulk operations (no apply to each loops)
β‘ Optimized data retrieval (SharePoint + Excel)
β‘ Graph API to save data in ONE go to Excel
π Real Example
We take a flow that takes ~5 hours using loops
β¦and redesign it to run in ~30 seconds β‘
π§ Key Takeaway
π Loops are fine for small datasets
π But for large data, you need better patterns
This is how you go from:
βοΈ Basic flows
β‘οΈ High-performance, production-ready automation
π― Who This Is For
βοΈ Power Automate makers working with real data
βοΈ Anyone hitting performance issues or experience slow flow run times
βοΈ Teams building scalable enterprise solutions
