Update a sharepoint excel table every time a slack workflow is used

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hello there ! 

I have browsed a lot and cannot seem to find anything in the templates or in the questions that is remotely close to what I am trying to achieve here.
I am not a programmer, so my coding skills are very limited. I am trying to get a flow that would use as a trigger a designated slack workflow in a designated channel. 
The info entered in this workflow would then be automatically filling an excel sheet in the sharepoint.

The only trigger I have found available on automate from slack is "When a file is created". I have managed to get it to identify my channel ID and the Sharepoint Excel sheet I'd like it to use but it does not seem to work and nothing happens when I used my workflow or post anything into the designated channel.

Trigger :

Action :

Would anyone be as kind as give me some advise to try to get this idea working ? (if this is possible at all...)

Cheers !

    I know you can go to a Workflow and Add a step within Slack and there is a Add a Spreadsheet Row (Also Delete,Select,Update spreadsheet rows) but it's for Google Sheets, I am trying to find a way to get this like you into an excel sheet to track in SharePoint.

    Found a solution that takes some technical skill but allows for tracking emojis. This will allow our team to use workflows to quickly deploy templated responses and hopefully allow us to track emoji metrics in the background.

    Ho wow ! 

    yeah, the google sheet app is exactly what I need and it works great, but unfortunately, my company security team does not allow the use of google drive for our data and we are stuck with Sharepoint 😞 
    Thanks you so much for the emoji one ! I am not that fluent in python but I get the general idea of his app, this is worth digging on that side ! 😄
