Posted on by MAlgoul2000 36

Hi,

I have a scenario, I'm using Microsoft Flow to update a list, once the list is updated it also update Forms Library item, I'm using SharePoint Designer Workflow 2013 to do some actions for the Forms Library. but unfortunately, SPD Workflow is not triggering until I do it manually.

 

is it possible to trigger SPD Workflow from Microsoft Flow and why it is not triggering after my update from first place?

 

your assistant will be appreciated.

    Hi @MAlgoul2000 ,

    I think the MS Flow can't trigger the SPD Workflow directly with some triggers and actions.

    There is a case about the Future of SharePoint Designer Workflows which you can take a reference:

    Hope it will have some help to you.

    Best Regards,
