Weekly submitting of a file to a Document Library
If you are able to maintain a SharePoint List in addition to the Document Library, I would suggest having a list item for each person with a column which stores the date of the most recently uploaded file. Let call this column LastUploadDate.
I assume you have a flow which is triggered by form submissions and use this to write the uploaded file to your document library. You can use this flow to add/edit entries in the new list to keep the LastUploadDate column up to date.
You can then have a flow triggered daily to query the list for any entries where LastUploadDate is older than 7 days. The result of this query is the list of people you need to send notifications to.
The new list could also record when the reminder notification was last sent out, allowing you to avoid sending duplicate notifications.
Presumably, when someone leaves your organisation you don't want to send them notifications about their late form submission. In this case you can remove them from the new SharePoint list.
I appreciate the assistance, I am just having trouble understanding the specifics of it to get it to work. I know what I want to do, it is getting it to work in Power Automate.
Thank you.
