Hello,

I have created a Flow that creates a Folder in my SharePoint as soon as I edit or create a list item. Is it possible that I can automatically insert the link to the folder in my SharePoint list?

As an example: I created a list Item with the ID 456, a folder is automatically created. Now I would like that a link to this folder is created and automatically saved in the list item 456. Is this possible?

Hello @v-bofeng-msft,

Thank you very much for your help! It worked instantly! Is there a possibility to implement a function that the link in the column Link to folder isn´t shown as a link but is displayed as a text?
For example, I don´t want to see the https://........ Link but instead I would like to see a text “click me” and then it will bring me to the folder.

Hi @Anonymous :

Yes, but it is a bit complex, because the Update item doesn't provide this method, and you can only implement such a function by calling the SharePoint API.
