Hi,

I will try to articulate my issue. I have a content approval PA flow which is checking if the user is from member group then trigger the approval process. the issue is as soon as the page is submitted for posting by member users, its being published for brief period before approval triggers and once the flow catches up, it unpublish the page. 

 

How can i make sure that page dont get published at the first place so that flow gets enough time to check the user group membership to decide if it needs to be bypassed or go through the approval process.

note: I am not using built in SharePoint library content approval instead I am using power automate. I cant use SharePoint built in library flow due t other limitations it offers.

 

thanks
