Create site from flow
Hi, Is there a way to create a site from flow? Say that a form is filled out and triggers a flow that creates the site based on the information in the form?
- Jun 05, 2019If it is a modern group connected site you want to create, you could use the Flow Azure AD connector action 'Create group', to create a Unified group - that will provision the modern site collection for you.

Tonje Waasjø no you cannot using the first method, but you can use something similar if you're working with the Graph API and using the HTTP Trigger Connector in Flow.

Tonje Waasjø yes - you could use the 'Send an HTTP request to SharePoint' action, as explained here:

(This assumes you have already created the required site design)
Note that you would only need the HTTP request action - not the other actions from his blog.
