Déclencheur power automate desktop

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 3

Bonjour à tous,

 

Je souhaite créer une tâche dans power automate Desktop pour copier un fichier vers un autre répertoire lorsque le fichier source est modifié de manière automatique sans avoir besoin de lancer le Flux ( comme sur power automate online avec le déclencheur " Lorsqu'un fichier est modifié " ) 

Comment dois-je m'y prendre ? Variable ? Loop ?

J'ai essayé de copier le code de la version online mais je ne sais pas où le mettre.

 

Merci de votre aide 

 

Cordialement Frédéric

    Title: Trigger power automaton desktop

     

    Hello to all,

     

    I would like to create a task in power automate Desktop to copy a file to another directory when the source file is modified automatically without having to launch the Flow (like on power automate online with the trigger "When a file is modified")

    How do I do it ? Variable ? Loop ?

    I tried to copy the code from the online version but I don't know where to put it.

     

    Thanks for your help

     

    Sincerely Frederic

    Hi Frederic,

     

    Firstly, it is not an online version.

    These are 2 different types of Flows - Cloud Flows and Desktop Flows.

    So you will not be able to copy the code of Cloud Flows and paste it into Desktop Flows.

     

    You will have to create an infinite loop like structure (not recommended) that will constantly keep checking for the Last modified date time of that file after every few minutes and if it has changed from its previous value then proceed with the next steps. This will always keep the Flow running 24 hours a day.

    Hi VJR ,

     

    Thank's for your answer ! 

     

    So if I understand, I can't do this task by automatic flow.

    My flow running correctly by manually method 

     

    I saw on power automate online a flow with gateway (with premium version).

    But my enterprise locked files copy beetween OneDrive and the desktop
