Instant flow to run from sharepoint online button webpart

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I have a instant flow that i want to be able to run from a button on my SharePoint site.

 

I have the button but I am not able to figure out how to get the link address to the flow to be able to run it.

 

Any insight into this would be very much appreciated.

    @Anonymous you need to create the flow first using the "For a selected item" trigger and grab the ID of the flow. In this example we're creating the Publish to Teams button:

    0-SP-List.png

     

    1-ForSelectedFile.png

     

    2-flowID.png

    The flow ID then goes into the flow as shown below:

    4-JSON.png

    The JSON shown above is as follows. You might not need the visibility setting which I've used here to hide the button once the flow has run.

     

    {
     "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
     "elmType": "button",
     "txtContent": "Publish to Teams",
     "customRowAction": {
     "action": "executeFlow",
     "actionParams": "{\"id\": \"021ec4e0-8f85-46b3-a557-a4456960a4eb\"}"
     },
     "style": {
     "background-color": "#468259",
     "color": "white",
     "visibility": "=if(([$PublishedToTeams] == 'Yes'),'hidden','visible')"
     }
    }

    @Anonymous that's not possible other than by creating a Power Apps button. There is a request for this in the Ideas area at https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Automate-Ideas/Embedded-Flow-Buttons-for-SharePoint/idi-p/97068#comments

    Great idea. Is there a way to run it without going to and finishing up on the Power Automate landing page?
