Hi @Azuretech , I understand that you have a Logic App that has a Recurrence trigger and want to know if you can run it manually.

When you run your Logic App from Azure Portal, like this screenshot The Logic App is run starting from the next step after Recurrence. So, it does not matter what you set in Recurrence. I have tried this in my Azure account. I have a daily recurring Logic App. It has run once today, and I can make it run again by clicking "Run" from Azure Portal - Logic App Designer. I verified in the Run History that the Logic App was run twice today: once from Recurring trigger and once from manual trigger.

Please accept an answer if correct. Original posters help the community find answers faster by identifying the correct answer. Here is how.

@Azuretech Thanks for reaching out.

Unfortunately, there is no way to identify if the trigger was triggered due to the triggered condition or you have triggered the flow from azure portal or using the Azure management REST API.

This would not be the accurate way/solution but could help up to some extent but not the viable solution. Based on the reoccurrence configuration in your workflow find the current time in logic app and compare if your logic app should be run during that time or not based on your occurrences scheduled (custom solution).
