When a file is created in flow not working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello,

 

I have a flow that triggers when a file is created in a sharepoint folder, in this case is a document library... but it works the same. 

 

The flow doesn't start in an automated way. Once I upload a file nothing happens. No run started, nothing. If I enter the edit mode of the flow and save it, the flow starts. How could I get a best approach for solving this?

 

here's my flow:

Please help!

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    I have made a test on my side and don't have the issue that you mentioned, could you please take a try with the trigger "When a file is created(properties only)" in the flow and let me know if the flow could works?

     

    Best regards,

    Alice
