Create sharing link for a file or folder - "Can Review"

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by PhilFancy 124

 

In OneDrive and SharePoint it's possible to share Word documents with permission level "Can review". 
This is only available to Word documents but not if you share a PDF document for example. 

 

This is how it looks:

("can review" makes it impossible for the users to edit the documents. But they are allowed to comment on the documents)

 

In Power Automate there is a action "Create sharing link for a file or folder". 
It just offers "View and edit" and "View only".

Does anyone know how to get a "Can review" link via Power Automate? 

 

I thank you in advance!

    Hi @PhilFancy,

     

    Have you tried using 'Review' as a custom value in the dropdown? That seems to be allowed in that dropdown and in my first test it looks like it generates a sharing link of type review.

    On a first look it seemed to do the trick. 


    Link description in Power Automate output is "People in your organization can review". 

     

    Thank you!
