    1. Click "Flow checker" beside Test for further information about error happens.

    2. Could you also spread your action and take a screenshot for me, so that I can check the parameters you insert.

    Thank you~

    Hi @Satish_Anchlia ,

     

    The trigger you used is "For a selected item", which can only start the flow from SharePoint.

    When you deploy your flow ready, just save the flow and it will shows up in your SharePoint list-Power Automate drop down. Select an item and click the flow name to trigger the process.

    Hi, Thank you for sharing the information.  However, I dont see any "deploy" button so could not follow your instructions.
