Sent back to creator for approval
Hello, I am trying to create a secondary approval. First approval - is is the user sending it to be approved by managers for the spend to go ahead the 2nd approval is sent back by the finance department to the creator for approval that the goods/services have been delivered/carried out. If I build a seperate list based on the responses in the first list - the created by comes through as me as I am running the flow - but if put the 2nd flow on the 1st list it doesn't seem to run correctly. Any tips would be appreciated
SharePoint site news notifications in Microsoft Teams channel
Dear Microsoft community, we are desperately trying to solve the issue since Microsoft stopped supporting the SharePoint News connector. We were trying to use the workaround that MS proposed but it's just not working. Can someone help me to setup a workflow that is posting the recent news in our news channel so that colleagues can start conversations about it? Thanks. Best PhilSharepoint files and folders created with Power Automate do not sync to desktop (OneDrive)
I created a folder, and file within it, with Power Automate and it shows up in Sharepoint but does not (ever?) sync to the desktop. If I use Power Automate to create folderA/folderB/file.txt It will not sync by itself "after a while" - where "a while" is exceeding the utility of automating it (I did not test longer periods of time) It will not sync if you create things in OneDrive that sync properly It will not sync if you press the sync button in Sharepoint it WILL sync if you create FolderA in OneDrive (as in, it will sync folderB/file.txt) it WILL sync if you create anything directly on the Sharepoint site
Flow with for a selected file trigger does not appear for some users
I have a flow with the trigger "For a selected file" and I can see it by clicking on its three dot menu and then going down to power automate and seeing it as one of the options. My users who have full control of the site and are the ones I am developing the flow for say they do not get this option in the power automate menu. Is there something else I need to do for them to see it?
SharePoint/Power Automate Issue
I am the IT Manager for a small business. I was told that SharePoint can be used as a ticketing system, if set up properly. I have actually gotten it to work, but here is the issue. We have 2 email domains, one is MSI and the other is @asc*. When I send an email to the latter, it works but if I send it from an msi email, it does not work at all. Is there a setting or something someone can point me to or do I somehow have to make 2 different flows in order to get this to work. Any help is appreciated Don MurraySharepoint list not refreshing after flow writes info.
Hi, I'm not sure if this is a bug or just a feature that's not currently supported, but when a flow updates a SharePoint list, the list does not get refreshed. What I mean is that the user will need to manually refresh a browser tab (f5) in order to have the information presented on the screen. On the other hand, if two users simultaneously update the SharePoint list via classic list edit means, the information automatically refreshes, no need to refresh browser tab. Is there a workaround or settings that I'm not aware of maybe? Cheers
ODATA Filter Query not valid when it should be
Hi, I’m deeply confused with Power Automate Get Items ODATA Filter Queries. They are completely illogical. With one choice column called “Status”, it works absolutely fine. With another choice column called “Sway Status” on the same list, it errors every single valid Filter Query I give it. > The syntax is correct, it is identical syntax to the one that works. > It recognises the column exists, otherwise it prints a different error along the lines of “The column may have been removed” when it can’t find the column > I have tried quote escaping. Doesn’t work The experimental feature to simplify filter queries isn’t there anymore, so I’m stuck with these queries that seem to only work if you’re lucky and the winds blowing in the right direction. Please help.PowerApp forms get stuck on "Getting your data..."
Some, but not all of my SharePoint Forms that are built using PowerApps are getting stuck saying (Getting your data...". The strange thing is that sometimes the data will load then this will happen, or I can click out of the form and reopen it and then it will work. Anyone experiencing a similar issue?Flow to replace SharePoint site page text web part content from form entry
I wish to trigger a flow from a form and use a response value to replace the text values in a text web part in a specific page in "Site Pages". I have tried 2 options but neither of them work. I had a look at this method but I found it confusing plus I would not be able to share/email the page because of the dynamic nature of the content. I am getting a error on the final action (version 1) or having the content canvas completely removed including canvas header (version 2). TRIGGER (both options): When a MS Forms response is submitted ACTION 1 (both options): Get response details ACTION 2 (for option 1): Get Digest Token (via Send an HTTP request to Sharepoint (POST)) ACTION 3a (option 1): Update Web Part (via Send an HTTP request to Sharepoint (PATCH)) -- RESULT: Action 'Send_an_HTTP_request_to_SharePoint_-_Option_1' failed: Cannot find resource for the request webparts. clientRequestId: 093cb580-33ec-45b8-a305-f0ccd16e5405 serviceRequestId: 00616aa1-b034-4000-219c-1d33e02fd756 ACTION 3b (option 2): Update CanvasContent1 (via Send an HTTP request to Sharepoint (POST)) -- RESULT: No change to web part and page not modified.Email to Assignee with SharePoint items created in past week and assigned to the email recipient
Going into this it seemed straightforward, but I've been banging my head against the Power Automate wall. We have a SharePoint list with a number of columns, one of which is basically Assigned to (it's titled Ticket created by). The ask from our user group is that the Ticket created by value/personnel is sent a weekly email and the body of the email includes a table with 4 column values of any new SharePoint items created in the past 7 days that have been assigned to them. There are about 30 individuals who could be in the Ticket created by column and not all of those individuals will have new items each week. So, if there are no new items for the person, there will not be an email. Originally, the flow was triggered upon creation and the Ticket created by personnel would receive an email with a bit of info from their SharePoint list item formatted in a table. This worked fine and still does. However, the new ask is that we move away from an automated flow and use a scheduled flow that runs weekly and displays x, y, and z values from the new items created in the past week and assigned to the recipient of the email. This is where I'm stumped. How do I include in the body of the email values of new SharePoint items (1) created in the past 7 days and (2) assigned to the To: recipient (Ticket created by value) of the email?
