Posted on by 13

Hi, 

 

New to flows. I have created a sucsessfull manual trigger flow that i want to be hosted in sharepoint but im unable to find out how to put that trigger ( button ) in my sharepoint site. Only information i can find is to use json code but i have tried that and still no button appears in my sharepoint site. 

 

Any help would be good see attachted flow. (flow runs sucssessfully for what i need) just need the button to appear in Sharepoint so users can manually trigger the flow. 

 

Thanks

    Thanks for the response, changing it to 'For a selected item' has resolved the problem. i have another problem however, please see my artical here if you have any suggestions that would be great. https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Using-Flows/Filling-out-existing-fillable-pdf-using-flows/td-p/325322

    Hi @RyanMac45 ,

     

    Like this:

    Using For a selected file as the trigger, it should be noted that a similar Flow needs to be created in default environment.

    After selecting the specified file, click the corresponding Flow option to trigger Flow.

    @RyanMac45

    You'll want to replace the Button trigger with a SharePoint "For a selected file" trigger.
