Building a flow: If a file name matches the title of the newly created sharepoint list item, attach a link to that file to the item

Hi Everyone,

I am in a bit of a pickle.

I am trying to create a flow which, when a new SharePoint list item is created, looks through a specified folder. Once it finds a file (spreadsheet) with the same name as the SharePoint item title, it would attach a link to that item in a specified column.

Is there a way to do this at all? I don't want it to attach the file itself as that'd make it difficult to edit later.

Thanks!

Hi @phoenixclusterx

Is your document stored under a document library? Any particular folder or all folders under a library? Please explain?

Thanks

Hi,

This is all stored in the same SharePoint library. Those spreadsheets are all in one folder. There is always a list item and a corresponding spreadsheet with the same name.

Hi @phoenixclusterx

Thanks for your reply. I have got a tutorial video about how to search file from a SharePoint document library. Here it is.
