Stopping a flow whenever an item is deleted in SP

Posted on by pdoyon

Greetings all,

I've tried to find the solution on this forum and various YouTube channels but to no avail. I'm building a Leave Request app and I want to put a delete button. The button works fine (it deletes the item on the SP list).

However, I want to stop the flow whenever the user deletes an item on the list. Right now, even when the item is deleted, the flow keeps going. How can I fix this ? Do I need to create another flow or could I add a second trigger to the original flow ?

Thanks!

@pdoyon

So I assume the DELETE button is in a SP List column. If that is correct then hopefully as suggestion use the DELETE button to move the item to an identical hidden list and, hopefuly that will work better. Then evey month/year bulk DELETE all items in the hidden list.

That is all I can offer at this stage to get around the flow not stopping.

Regards,

Andrew

Re: Stopping a flow whenever an item is deleted in SP

Hi @Andrew_J ,

Sorry for the missing information. The DELETE button is in a Power Apps Gallery. So when the user clicks on it, it deletes the item from the SP list. When the user submits its item, it starts an approval flow, but I'd like the DELETE button to cancel the flow as well as deleting the request. I hope my explanations are better!
