Create a flow condition for when a document is checked in on SharePoint

Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Is it possible to create a flow that is dependent on an item being checked in on SharePoint? I want to set up a flow so that when I check in a document, it sends an email to my supervisor that the item is ready for submittal. However, I can only find support for when an item is created, not checked in. Does setting the condition "'Modified' is equal to 'created'" trigger the flow when the document first shows up, or upon first check-in?

Hi @samuelbecker,

There is no way to check if the document is checked in on SharePoint library in Microsoft Flow currently. If you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

A solution I have created is to have an intermediary using a 2013 Workflow on the document library which starts on the document being created/modified, this workflow then creates an item in an "Approval" list, from this list you can create an MS flow for the approval which trigger is an item created in that list (this also has the added benefit of being a log of approvals).
