Add a security group as a member of a teamsite by flow.
Hi,
I am trying to find a solution to Add a security group as a member of a teamsite by flow.
When i create a new site i want to automatically ad a security group.
Tried to find something with 'send to HTTP' uri but can't find anything... anyone have an idea to solve this?
HoSFonnan To add security group to new SharePoint site, you first need to use the ensureUser endpoint which checks whether the specified login name (security group) belongs to a valid security group in the site. If the security group doesn't exist, adds the security group to the site.
Check first HTTP action given in my initial response. Provide display name of group to logonName property.
Then you can use the _api/web/siteusers endpoint to get security group Id from SharePoint user information list which you will use to grant permissions on site.
