Flow Scenario - Email DL when specific column of excel sheet is modified

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I am looking into streamlining our New Hire / Termination process.  Basically what i am looking for is the following:

1. I have a shared XLS saved on my OneDrive

2. I want to edit the first column of the XLS, and when that specific column ONLY is modified, send an email to a specific DL of my choosing.

 

Is this possible?

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    It seems that Flow is not able to detect the columns within a file that saved on OneDrive. So I am afraid that your scenario that when a specific column in the Excel table is modified then send an email would be not possible currently.


    I haven’t seen a similar request at Flow Ideas Forum, please create a new one, I assume that it should be a good addition for Flow.


    The Flow Ideas Forum is:

    I will help collect and report it on my side.


    Best regards,
    Mabel Mao
