Hi all, 

 

Before I get too far with this and too excited... 

If I map a network site using a ftp site, is it be possible for power automate to read file when they are created ?

I intent to create a ftp drive with one of our suppliers and create a flow with 'When a file is created (properties only)'.

 

This is the file system action. 

 

Or is there another action that would read a network site ?

    That trigger is likely only available for OneDrive type file shares.  For FTP you would need to write your own polling trigger.
