Hi all, I've been looking but can't find the answer to my exact question that has steps to resolution. I have two SharePoint sites both with their own Document Libraries. What I want to do is...

Hi simsbsims,

You can "kind of" sync files between sites and document libraries but there are caveats. You will need a Flow to create/update and another to delete. It's important to note that a manual initial sync will need to be completed.

Here is an example create/update Flow:

Here is an example delete Flow:

I hope this helps.

Thanks Norman Young I have been struggling with this one for way longer than I should have. I could only find somewhat complicated explanations, this is so simple I don't know why it was so hard to find this info.

One thing I will add is the delete function in your explanation only works when you are using two seperate sites (I was using one test site and it didn't work, switched to two and it works great).
