Get File Properties File Custom Properties not available in the Dynamic Content

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

Hello,

 

I've an Excel file in which I added custom properties based on some cell values. The idea is to be able to use those as metadata once the file is uploaded in a SharePoint Library. I'm building a flow to update the file metadata based on those custom properties once the file is uploaded in the SharePoint Document Library. I would like to be able to see those custom properties as column in my SharePoint Library.

 

When I use "Get File Properties" in Power Automate I don't have the custom properties I've created in the Dynamic contents menu.

 

Any idea why and how could I overcome this?

 

Thanks in advance for your support

Adrien

    Hi @SteveYao ,

     

    On the relevant Excel File I click File > Info, then on the right I click Properties and the Advanced Properties displays

    Seems this is by design.

    Yes it is standard but I was wondering if there is a way to get access to those in the file properties so I can update the info in a SharePoint list through Power automate using that information

    I think you may raise a MS support case
