Alerts set on alibrary folder not working
I created a flow (didn't use that for a while but nothing too difficult) and it's working like a charm : i do get mail when documents are created in a particular folder and sub-folders of a library. Great and thanks for your suggestion since i totally forgot about flow (i tried to used it a few years back for a very particular and specific need to sync outlook and gmail calendars but it didn't give exactly the desired result so i disabled the 2 flows i created and stopped completely to use it to the point where i even forgot that flow existed at all).
I just have one question : i think that in the past, flow was displayed as an office 365 app when i logged-in to my O365 account online. But strangely enough, it does not appear as an app any more, even if i select "display all apps". To find flow, I had to search "flow Microsoft" using bing or google to get the link to the web page. Why is it so ? Why is flow no more an O365 app displayed alongside the other apps my company suscribed too (office apsp online, Teams, OneNote, OneDrive, Stream, Sway, Planner… etc) ?
Most sincerely
Gregory

Actually flow is working for my account and i was able to create a flow between a particular folder on a particular SharePoint Library and my O365 email and i now have the notification that did not work anymore when set on SharePoint directly.
So i think that somehow the company i work for still pays for a flow licence eventhough flow does not appear anymore as an O365 app.
I am not too sure what you mean by breaking out the E3 or E5 plan. But it does not look like something i want to do… the company i work for has nearly 100000 employees, i am just one very small fish among thoses, i am not even part of my company IT Dept (i am juste an engineer working in one of teh very numerous engineering depts) so i am not sure i am allowed to touch anything regaring these O365 Enterprise licences...

What I mean by that is all E3 / E5 and other licenses can be "Expanded" in the admin center and you can hand pick different peices of Office you want to be licensed for each user contained in each of those licenses. Flow is one of them, and if not licensed it wont' show up in your app lists, but pretty sure you can still use it anyway similar to SharePoint but I'm not 100% on that, only reason why I would think Flow would not show up for you, but you can still use it.
