Power automate List to a folder with documents

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 1

I have a list, and when an item is created or modified, I am trying to create a flow that takes a couple of fields and copies that data into another sharepoint location where I have documents stored. It seems my problem is I can not get an action that finds those folders and then subsequently find the columns I created to add the data.

When an items is created, I am pulling the ID (into the Compost). that works fine. I am able to see the document folders using the get folder metadata path, but I am unable to figure out how to send data from the list to the documents.  

 

Does any of this make sense?

    If I understand correctly, you want to copy the metadata properties from a list item to a file in a library. If that's the case, here's what you need to do:

    1. Ensure you have a column that maps the list item to the corresponding library item. Do you have such a column?
    2. Use a trigger based on changes in the list.
    3. Use the "Update File Properties" action to update the file properties in the library with the metadata from the list item.
