detect filename (german or english) and split workflow

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I like to split a flow which is detecting a file input in a dropfolder, if the name is starting with "Bestellung" or with "order number". How can I do that? The file name is already detected by "compose - file name with extension".

    @Anonymous  you can use Language detection model of Power Automate https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ai-builder/flow-language-detection#:~:text=Expand%20Manually%20trigger%20a%20flow,in%20the%20list%20of%20actions. to detect the language from text

     

    And to split the flows, you can write two flows which perform the actions as per the language as follows:

     

    Option1:

    you create the flows in solution, so use manual trigger and call with child flow from parent flow using Child flow action

     

    Option 2:

    Use Http trigger on child flows and use HTTP action from parent flow to call the child flow.

    I try to control this flow by using "Condition" to select the desired flow, I think this is easier to handle

    @Anonymous  yea you can use conditions to determine which flow to call, but in order to call another flow, you will need to use Run a child flow or http action.
