Troubleshooting When Email Arrives (V3) Trigger Issues in Azure Logic Apps

Azure Logic Apps are powerful tools designed to automate workflows and integrate various services effectively. However, users may occasionally run into problems, such as the frustrating scenario where the When Email Arrives (V3) trigger works in one resource group but fails in another, despite having identical configurations. If you've encountered this issue, you're not alone. Let's dive into the problem and how to troubleshoot it.

Understanding the Problem

You may have a logical app set up with the When Email Arrives (V3) trigger, and it's supposed to work seamlessly across different resource groups. However, if you've noticed that it operates in one resource group while failing in another even with the same mailbox pointed at both, those differences can be quite perplexing.

What makes this situation even more perplexing is that the deployment is automated, and the code is the same in both environments. Furthermore, the manual triggering of the logic app in the non-working resource group only pulls in new emails after you manually activate it, which is not the intended functionality.

Steps to Troubleshoot the Issue

Here's a systematic approach to resolving the trigger issue:

1. Delete and Recreate the Trigger

Sometimes, after deploying a logic app to a new environment, configurations can become mismatched or corrupted. Follow these steps to reset the trigger:

Delete the Trigger and All Actions: Start by completely removing the existing trigger and any related actions from the logic app. This can clear out any potential configuration problems.

Save the Empty Logic App: After deleting the actions, save the logic app in its current state. This ensures that you aren't attempting to work with an outdated configuration.

Redeploy the Logic App: Run your deployment pipeline again to redeploy the empty logic app. This will create a fresh instance and any necessary connections.

2. Understand the Authorization Issue

One possible reason for the trigger malfunction could be tied to the connection settings. When a logic app is deployed to a new environment, it typically creates a new Office 365 connection. This is where authorization issues may occur.

Recreating the Logic App After Connection Creation: It's hypothesized that the trigger requires an already established connection to function correctly. By deploying the logic app after the connection exists, you're providing the necessary authorization context it needs to operate.

Final Thoughts

Having dealt with this issue personally, I can assure you that the steps outlined above have resolved the trigger problem in many cases without needing any code adjustments.

If you find yourself stuck or the trigger still won't fire, consider checking:

Connection Permissions: Ensure that the connection has the required permissions to access the mailbox.

Logic App Diagnostics: Use Azure’s diagnostics tools to monitor the logic app's behavior and check for any error messages that might offer further insights.

By following these simple yet effective troubleshooting steps, you can quickly get your Azure Logic App and email trigger back in action.
