How to: when a new file is created/modified in a sharepoint folder, copy that file and paste it into another folder?

(0) ShareShare

Hello!

I'm new to Power Automate and I feel like this should be a pretty straightforward workflow but I'm having trouble setting it up. I set the trigger to be when a file is created/modified in a specific Sharepoint file, but where do I go from there to have that new/modified file be copied into another specific folder?

 

Thanks in advance!

    There is a specific SharePoint action for copying a file to another location.  Use the file identifier from the trigger and you should be able to copy the file wherever you want to.

    how do you edit this flow so it also copy new/modified files from the subfolders?
