When an item is modified (V2) does not get triggered

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee
When a row is inserted or modified, the "When an item is modified (V2)" does not get triggered. I followed other related post to add a timestamp in the SQL table, but the table already has the "LastUpdatedDate" column, an example of that column would be "2021-01-15 23:34:09.3898013".
 

The idea is I want to have when a row gets modified in a SQL table, runs the procedure.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    When invoking triggers, SQL connector in PowerAutomate have the following limitations:

    • A ROWVERSION column is required for OnUpdatedItems
    • An IDENTITY column is required for OnNewItems

    I guess that you don't have a RowVersion Column in your SQL table and that's why the trigger won't start.

    Hope it helps !

    A ROWVERSION column is required to work use below query to create

    Solution: Add a column of datatype rowversion in the sql table.

    For example

    Column name: VerCol

    Datatype: rowversion

     

    Again connect the sql and modify data (Request Status) in the row. Flow started working.
