Get Items In SharePoint - 2nd List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 51

Hello Everyone, 

 

I have a Total 2 lists in Sharepoint, 

One list is the "Main List" Which contains 5-6 Columns in it, out of which 1 is 'ID', which is Default Generated, & Another one is 'Final_Status' - Choice Column, which has Draft Status on the creation of the ID, & it Changes to Pending when Data Gets Generated in Second List with Its relation to 1st List.

And another list "Approver List", has 3-4 columns such as 'Approver name, 'Approver email', 'Approval Comments', 'Approval Status', & one more list as 'Master ID', which is exactly similar to the ID generated in Main List, that also helps us in Maintaining a relationship between the two.

Now Every ID from Main List Contain 5 Mater ID in Approver List

 

Now let's talk about what I want -

I want When a New Item Is Created in Both the List, So now, An Email should be Sent to 1st level of Approver(*In Total 5 level of Approver is there), & the Email should like that in a way, such Approver Can directly Approve or Reject, & Once  1st Level Approver Approved the Request, it Should go to 2nd Level, & Cycle Repeats till 5th Level.

How I am Thinking -

I want a Power automate to be built, in which

  1. a trigger is set when a new item is created.
  2. Action – get Items From Second List with Filter Query as Master ID eq ‘ID’
  3. Save the Master ID in the Variable
  4. Either Choose Approval or Send An Email With Options
  5. Send the Email to 1st level of Approver, With Option As Approve / Reject, with Comment Box.
  6. Repeat the Cycle.

 

Problem –

I am a Complete Newbie to Power Automate, So want a Step By Step, how to Approach Towards this,

What I Tried-

I already Tried Watching the Approval Series Tutorial By Reza Dorrani in YouTube, also, Read about it. But seems Nothing help.

    Despite being a complete self-described newbie, you seem to have a handle on terminology and your steps that you've outlined seem sound. 

     

    What have you built so far? Can you show screenshots, and we can help you through it? Where are you hitting issues?

     

    Do you have a list of Approvers set-up somewhere? 

     

    What happens if the Approval Task is rejected? Should it re-start? Notify the initiator? Go back to the previous Approver for amendment until it is approved all the way through or is it entirely ended at that point?
