Bulk Checkin in Sharepoint
I want to create a manually triggered flow in Power Automate to check in all files checked out by me in SharePoint, which are located in different folders. Is it possible to have such a flow?

Hi omergunduz - in your document library, create a view:
1. Make it a private view
2. Filter by checked out to = [me]
3. Set Folders option to view all items without folders
Create a flow that runs on a regular cadence, I used the 'describe it' feature to get the base of the flow created pretty quickly. Point it to your Library and your view of your checked out items. It can then loop through your items and check them back in.

Dear Kelly_Edinger thank you very much for your help. I ve created a new view just following your instructions and it allowed me to make a bulk checkin w/o even running any flow. That is amazing. Thank you again.
