User selected folder to copy - sharepoint

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

I want to create a manually triggered flow that copies a user selected source folder path to a new destination folder that the user also selects (checking for existing path).

 

For example the source folder might be called "Q2-23/". I want the user to select this folder, and name a new folder (i.e. "Q3-23/"), and the flow to copy all sub folder structures (and some files) to new destination folder Q3-23/

 

In my case, Q2-23 and Q3-23 folders are both within a root folder on a sharepoint drive.

 

The tutorials I have followed say you have to copy from a predefined source and copy to a predefined destination. But in my case, the flow in initiated every quarter to copy the latest quarter directory to the new directory. This way it always copies the latest file and folder revisions, etc.

 

Where abouts in the flow do I get the user to select the source and destination folders/paths?
