How to run flow for entire responses

[sreeray]

Hello All,

I am new to this so my question could be stupid. So a flow was previously created for a Pre and Post Survey to connect to Salesforce. It didn't sync before. Today I found some errors from the 28 day history and fix those errors by running that particular date.  But since I can only see 28 days history, there were other responses too before that time period that is not synced to SF. So my question is can I run entire flow and sync all those old responses? How to do that? Just editing the flow

@sreeray Have you synced your responses in your form to Excel?

If so, you can create a flow that pulls the rows from the table in the Excel workbook. Ensure you've filtered out the data first prior to using the Apply to Each action to loop through each row. 

In the meantime, you might find be interested in these YT Tutorials.

@sreeray 

It sounds like you want to "replay" essentially all the data that came in before, so you can sync it as it should have, hence why you ran some in the 28 day window.

Replaying them will be extremely hard. 

As @creativeopinion  mentioned, you may be able to create an output of the previous into Excel, but there is no guarantee that they will all be there.

If I have helped you, I would really appreciate if you please Mark my answer as Resolved/Answered, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

Cheers
