Hi all,

I need to create a flow that either creates a list item or sends me an email when a user shares a file in sharepoint. I need to gather the user, the recipient and the file name. I cannot find a trigger for this. Does anyone know of a customized way to do this?

There is no trigger that can fire when a document is shared. It's not the same as modifying it. The only way I can think of doing it is to add an additional columns to your library for the recipient which would need to be completed before or after the Share which would then fire the When a file is created or modified (properties only) trigger. You could then get the ModifiedBy, Recipient and Filename from the dynamic content and do whatever you want with them.
