Help designing flow: Create SharePoint news post when MS Form is submitted

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 49

 

My goal:

I want employees to submit internal news on a SharePoint site, but don't want to give them the power to create pages.

 

My flow idea:

  1. User submits MS Form. Fields include author/employee name, article title, article content, date to be published, topic, and optional attachments.
  2. Flows creates a news post in SharePoint and marks it as "pending." The post would use a page template, which would include article title, article content, date published, topic, and any attachments the employee submitted.
  3. A site admin would review the submission (i.e., the "pending" news post) and mark it as "approved," which would make the news post visible on the site.

 

Questions:

  • Is there a better method than Forms > SharePoint page?
  • Is there something built into SharePoint that could accomplish this without using Power Automate?
  • Can someone please give me an outline of the actions needed to complete this flow? I'm very much a novice.
  • If there are any resources you know of that could help me create this process, can you share them with me?

 

Edit: I created two separate flows (Forms > SharePoint list item, then SharePoint list item > SharePoint page). I'm still trying to eliminate some errors in those processes, but then had the thought of trying to combine it all into one Flow.
