Deleting an item from SharePoint Library

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 25

Hello, 

 

I am trying to delete an item from the SharePoint Doucment library using Flow. 

 

We have a sharePoint list with employee informations and a doucment library with pdf files associated with each employee.  We have , user id column in the document library against each pdf file. 

 

We want to delet the pdf file associcatedwith a employee if he/she leaves the company.  for that , I am creating a flow and checking the user last day column and compare it with today, if its greate than today , i will set the status as " Not in Company". 

 

Now, I want to delete the associated file from the doucment library, How can i do that? I was trying to do this by checking the id column in the List and the userId column from the document library but, I dont know how to get the column name from the document library since I am getting the info(GetItem) from the list in the previous step.

Apaco

    Hi @Apaco89,

     

    You could start a flow like below to achieve this:

    As for the Id field, you could set a gallery in PowerApps, and insert a button in template part. Then set the OnSelect property of the button control to:

    'PowerApp->Getfileproperties,Deletefile'.Run(ThisItem.Identifier)

    Regards,
