Re: OneDrive for Business: if file is copied in folder

@bingo-ingo Are you looking for when a new file is added to a specific folder?
Would not the trigger when a file is created in folder X work for this?

@bingo-ingo Is it a new file or are you replacing an already existing file?

@JimmyWork The file is existing in one folder and the user move this file to another folder. The trigger should run if the file was moved.

In the docs i found for the trigger "File is created": Files moved within OneDrive are not considered new files.
