Known issues and limitations

  1. In some cases, When a file is added or modified (properties only) and When a file is created (properties only) triggers may delay in returning files immediately and postpone newly created/modified files for the next trigger runs. This means that the trigger does not guarantee to return all files in a single run when "Split On" option is disabled.
