In scenarios where SharePoint Lists contain more than 5000 items, handling paginated data becomes crucial. When making HTTP calls to retrieve data, the response often includes a __next property. This property serves as a marker for paginated data, and its absence indicates the end of the dataset. Safeguarding your process against potential errors involves checking the existence of a property before attempting to access it. To assess the existence of the property, you can use the following formul a: contains ( json ( variables (‘varSampleJson’)), ‘next’) Here’s how you can handle property existence in JSON responses using Power Automate: The formula within the compose action returns a ‘true’ based on the provided JSON sample value. Conclusion : By incorporating this property existence check, you prevent potential errors that may arise from attempting to access a non-existent property.
