Posted on by 19

Hi I wonder if anyone can help me please,  I have spent the day trying to pull a flow together that allows me to move a file that has had its column updated to 'To be Published' to a shrepoint subsite now although the flow reckons it is working the file does not move plus I need it to cover any file that is put into that specific library that is marked 'To be Published'.  Can someone please advise what I am doing wrong please?

    Hi Thank you for responding,  This is the first time I have tried to set up a flow and I have combines a lot of different items to cover the check the status of the column if it has 'To be published' in the Column Final then I would like it moved to the other library but only if it has that status.

     

    The get changes was the first video I watched,  do I need to take that out?  how do I just get it to check the column and then if the status matches, move the file?

     

    Sorry so new to this but I have to automate this before Tuesday.

     

    appreciate all the help you can provide me please?

    Are you able to show us an output of an instance you've run? 

     

    Right now I don't understand why you have the "Get Changes" in there, if you're always moving items with "To Be Published" in the field. 

     

    Is the name of the field "Final Value"?
