Hi I am new to Flow and need some help in below scenario.

I have two site collections, and each site collection has one List in it. e.g. Site1 with ListA and Site2 with ListB.

I am adding new List items to to ListA which gets added to ListB after delay of 1 min. which works fine using Flow.

But i am struggling to achieve - when i update status column in ListB it should also change the status column in ListA.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Unfortunately, Flow does not currently support monitoring whether the value of the specified field in the List has changed.

The part that is difficult to implement with MS Flow's current action is that the current trigger cannot determine if the specified column has been changed. It just checks if the items in the entire list have changed.

So if the user does not change the comment field, just change the other fields, it may also trigger Flow.

If you want such a feature to be supported by MS Flow, please consider voting for a similar idea below:

In addition, some blogs mentioned that it seems that you can use HTTP Request to determine whether the specified field has changed, please check the following links and see if it helps:
