Send email when folder is added

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hey Everyone,

 

I am trying to create a flow that sends an email to our team when a folder is added to a location in Sharepoint.

 

It currently works for the most part but the issue I'm having now is sometimes the folders that we have also have subfolders and it is sending emails for those too. Is there any way I can get it to exclude the subfolders?

    Hi @ukulele_Leroy 

     

    Thank you for posting.

     

    You could set trigger conditions. Flow is triggered only when the folder path is equal to the specified folder.

    Hope it helps

     

    Best regards,

    Hey,

     

    I've tried this and it seems to stop it completely

    Do spaces in the file path matter?

    Hi @ukulele_Leroy 

     

    Thank you for your attempts.

     

    The space within folder name shouldn't affect anything as the they are separated by '/'. 

    LibraryName/FolderName1/
