Hello Everyone,

So i have an approval flow that triggers when a file is created. The problem is I have to copy this flow for every location (Moerdijk, Zwartsluis) like shown on below.

Example1:

Example2:

1- Is it possible to trigger this so that it checks when a file is created on all subfolders (Locations) ? Or Check if there is a new file on all subfolders for the folder path: /Invoices/5- Bill To Be Approved by Administration/ ?

2- Is it also possible to get the metadata the Location(Moerdijk, Zwartsluis and so on...) on a path? Can you present an example?

The folder name is optional. Test again using only the Site Address and Library name:
The dynamic content will expose various meta data about the file, such as the folder path etc:
Example:

Filename: Communications-Strategy-V1.0-Live1.pdf
Folder path: Shared Documents/
Full Path: Shared Documents/Communications-Strategy-V1.0-Live1.pdf
Link to file: https://############.sharepoint.com/sites/DemoSite/Shared%20Documents/Communications-Strategy-V1.0-Live1.pdf
