Hello, I have been looking for a good way to have flows make an event in planner when I move an email to a new folder. Has anyone had any luck finding a way to do this? I don't want a new event everytime that I received an email and the emails that I may want to create an event will all have very different subject lines. Thank you in advance to anyone with some information on this!

Hi,

If I understood right, you would like to trigger your Flow only when an email is placed in a particular folder. You should be able to achieve this simply by selecting the folder in the trigger. As the message Id changed when moving an email to a folder, the trigger should trigger like the email is new.

e.g.: Folder Sync Issues

Hope this helps,

Max

That was what I thought too but it is not doing it that way. I wonder if it needs to be a new email in my inbox that I can then use the move to option and see if that works.

Hi @mvonnahme ,

The function to trigger an email when a email is move from a folder to another folder is not supported currently, the new email would also trigger the flow.

If you only want the moved email to trigger the flow, maybe you could create a folder to save all the moved email, then you could create the flow with trigger for when a new email arrives to the special folder.

Best Regards,
