Changing SharePoint Quick links automatically via power automate
Hi, hope all are doing well.
My requirements is,
1. I have a list named Birthday wishes where it has column such as Name, Birthday_date, Emp_No, and image. where the image column contains a URL of an employee's image. This list would be changed daily as per the birthday of employees.
2. I have a page in my SharePoint site, where I have a quick link web part or link web part.
3. My need is to add the image URL in quick link web part or link web part automatically whenever the URL changed.
4.These functionalities can be done through power automate or without power automate
Please Help me to solve my problem. Thanks in advance 🙂
bhavaM I will suggest you to try below SharePoint out of the box approach instead of using Quick Links web part and Power automate flow/PowerShell/custom solution for updating the links/image URLs.
- Create a SharePoint list for storing the birthdays and details
- Create a list view using filters so that only current month birthdays are visible
- Apply JSON formatting for your list view to make it look like quick links
- Create a SharePoint modern page
- Add list web part on page --> select your list --> Edit web part settings --> select your list view showing current month birthdays.
Check below SharePoint JSON view formatting samples which will help you:
