Missing Excel Triggers

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
I'm trying to set up a trigger for when a new row is added to a specific tab in an Excel sheet. However, the only trigger the editor shows me is "For a selected row". Copilot told me there should be a "When a new row is added" trigger.
 
Is this a permissions issue or something else? If there's not a "When a new row is added" trigger, how can I get around that?

    Hi,

    There is not another trigger so not sure why it tells you that. you would have to use the SharePOint or OneDrive, when a file is updated, not when a row is added.
     
    Copilot told you wrong.
