Setting up a simple Flow in SharePoint
Hi All, I have set up a flow to send an email when a file is created in a sharepoint folder, however I don't get notified if something is uploaded to a sub-folder within that.
Could anyone please suggest a simple way I could set it up so that I can be notified if any files are modified, or any of the sub-folders are uploaded to?
I can set up multiple flows for each folder, etc, but I'm hoping there's an easier way.
Thanks in advance!

When using the "When a file is created" trigger, you are prompted for a Folder Id. While I understand that most people will assume sub-folders are included, and the trigger should probably be updated to do that, for now you will need to select the sub-folder from the picker (or enter the relative URL to the sub-folder).
I can confirm I have seen this behavior...it seems Flow is not dealing well with situations where you upload a document to a folder instead of doing to the root of the document library Stephen Siciliano FYI
