Here is the link to the flow, sharepoint and adobe sign video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5kCVv5HqOQ

Hey @jsb81

Can you please share more details of what is it that you are trying to do. Please refer to the screenshot below:
In the screenshot I am trying to check the status of the agreement and creating any sequential steps if it is "Signed".

In your scenario, I am assuming that you are putting the status of the agreement in variable and trying to run until it is SIGNED and running that in a defined interval. If that is the case, refer to the screenshot below:
The set variable will be the Status from the dynamic selector and in the delay until I have put the expression:
addHours(utcNow(), 1)
This will delay the flow for an hour and you can customise as per you requirement.

Hope this Helps!

Hi,

I'm trying to download the signed contracts into a SharePoint document library once the applicant has SIGNED the document.

In the below section I only want to download signed documents in the Employee Contract agreements

Instead of following the lengthy process for that, please refer to the flow below:
This flow will be triggered when the state of the agreement changes and if it is Signed, it will create a new file in Sharepoint library of your choice.

Hope this helps!

Hi Yash,

I followed your steps and the flow stops at the conditions and skips the file creation process in SharePoint.

Below is how the flow is setup. Not sure what I'm missing 😞

Thanks

Hey @jasb81 ,

You are trying to use two triggers in 1 flow and this will not work this way. What you can do is create two flows.

1. Use Trigger :"When an item is created in sharepoint" and the action is to create the agreement and send for signature.

2. this is the second flow and triggered when the state of an agreement changes and if it is signed, it creates a new file in sharepoint.

Hope this Helps!

Hi @jasb81

So the do until loop in the video, keeps checking the Status of the agreement in every defined interval that is defined in the delay action (you can refer to the flow that you shared earlier requesting what values go where and my flow where I showed you those values)

In that flow it will keep fetching the agreement after the delay until the status is SIGNED. In my suggestion I am asking you to use two flows to do that so that one flow does not wait for a couple of hours to get the Signed Status.

But if you still insist on using just one flow and the template that you shared earlier, you can configure the delay until and add the 1 hour time stamp to that so that flow keeps checking every hour if the status was changed (In the one that I suggested, the flow wil not wait for half time if the document was signed within the hour)

Hope this helps!

oh ok. Isn't it possible to delay the 2nd trigger untill the document is signed by participant1.

I'm planning to help HR & other teams automate several contracts using flow and each contract type will have its own SharePoint Folder. Do I have to setup two flows for every contract as that will be a lot of flows to maintain?

Thanks

I thought you were referring to just one documnet. However I have modified the first flow and this one should be able to do the job for you:

This will check the document status everyhour until it is signed and will time out after one day. You can make modifications to the delay as per your requirements.

Another way of doing this could be, creating the second flow that is triggered when the status of the documnet changes and then you add an action of get item from sharepoint and match the ID and then use it dynamically for multiple departments. Totally up to you.

Hope this Helps!
