Approved Date & Approved By for SharePoint Library

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 32

Hi, 

 

I want to add the approved date & Approved By information in 2 columns in my library. Would anyone please help.

 

I generated the below flow for my Document Approval System, which runs the approval flow and updates the approval status. I have another flow to copy the approved file in another folder and share it with all the team members.

Whether the approved date is going to be added to the original or approved folder will work for me. 

As I understand, I cannot use the action of "Update File Properties", since it will be considered as a new update for the file, it will again change to the "Draft" status and requires another loop of approval. 

 

I would appreciate any help for this issue. 

Thanks, 

Nastaran

    Hi @NastaraN ,

     

    Seems like you forgot to attach your flow structure.

     

    Common speaking we will use "Update File Properties" to change file's latest status.

    Meanwhile, if your trigger is "When a file is created or modified(properties only)" and you only want the flow being triggered when a new file is created, you can try to set as below:

     

    @equals(triggerBody()?['Created'], triggerBody()?['Modified'])

    So that the flow will only be triggered when you create a new file in that folder.

    Hope this helps.
