When folder is moved, update permission

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 8

I need a flow that would do the following;

When a folder is moved from document library 1 to document library 2, apply permissions of document library 2. 

How can I accomplish this? Or, is there any way in sharepoint to have the permissions automatically updated ?

    Hi @sr2 ,

     

    For assigning permissions to the SharePoint list item, please refer to this blog:

    assign-unique-permissions-to-a-document-with-the-new-send-an-http-request-to-sharepoint-action-how-to-use-the-sharepoint-rest-api-in-flow

    Although this is a method for assigning permissions to a SharePoint list item, this is also used with the SharePoint Library folder. They can all be regarded as items and have an item ID. Please take a try.

     

    Best Regards,
