SharePoint - When an item is Created

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 13

Hello:

 

I am building a flow that triggers when a document is added to a library. Once added, the flow will get the column information and update a SharePoint List

 

If a user uploads a file to the Document Library and does not populate the required columns, the flow fails immediately with "Required Column Data Missing"

 

Is there a way to tell the flow to ignore and continue with whatever fields are populated, or is there a way to pre-populate a "Multiple Lines of Text" field so it is technically populated?

 

Thanks!

    Hi Bof:

     

    It is actually a "Multiple Lines of Text" column, any idea how to pre-populate that type of column

     

    Thanks!

    Hi @davidtheilman ,

     

    You could set a default value for that column.
