Make an individual item in a list read only
Hi all,
I have a SharePoint Online list (assume an issues list). Once an item's status is closed, I want to make it read-only so that noone can edit the item.
What's the best way to achieve this using PowerAutomate?
Is this even possible to make an individual item in a list read only?
Thanks for the help

There are two ways to achieve it
1. You can change permission of the list item in such a way that every user will have only Read Permission - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-pnp-blog/how-to-break-and-change-list-item-permission-using-power/ba-p/2493331
2. Another approach is You can declare list item as Record so no one will able to delete it even if anyone have permission. - https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/254557/sharepoint-online-rest-api-to-declare-item-as-record
Hope it will be helpful to you.
