MicrosoftShipped to First Release: Flow integration for SharePoint document libraries
- Kerem Yuceturk
Hi Rune Myrhaug, you are correct that when you use "File" triggers this is a limitation. They only work on the selected folder.
Though if you use "item" based triggers, they work at the library level and will catch changes/new items that occur in the whole library.
This is not intuitive, and the transitions between the item and file triggers/actions are not easy to do (one way to do it is to match things by their modified/created by dates, with some margin). Think of this as a workaround while we work on making this a lot better over the coming months. Let me know if you are trying to enable a specific scenario and I can try to help.
- Thanks :) Sounds good :)
I would like to get a message into a Slack Channel when a file is created/modified in a SharePoint document library, regardless what folder the file is placed in. I do NOT want to create a new flow for each folder in a document library :)- Kerem Yuceturk
Rune Myrhaug, you will run into some limitations today. I can show you some workarounds in private if you'd like :). In two months it will be easier to do.
