Create an item in power apps after get approvals

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 133

Hello, 

 

I need to create an app in which I can add a document, and then ask specyfic people for approvals. After getting all approvals (it will be two person) I want an item to be added to sharepoint list. 

 

I was thinking I do it by Submit form and approval flow with triger : when the new item is created, but now I am thinking I am wrong, because it this way I add an item first and then request for an approval. Can you help me with creating  flow wchich allows me adding an item to the list after specyfic person approve it?

    Hi @Karolina776 ,

     

    I've made a test for your reference:

    1\My SP list

    2\My flow

    3\My App

    vbofengmsft_2-1694077052731.png

    'PowerAppV2->Createitem'.Run(JSON({Title:Title_DataCard1.Update,unavailable:DataCardValue2.SelectedItems,RichText:RichText_DataCard1.Update},JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData))

     

    Best Regards,

    I like solution 2 but, to be honest, i have no idea how to pass the record  to flow using power apps button, and how to create a flow which create a record not only i sharepoint list but also in app.

    Hi @Karolina776 ,

     

    I have two workarounds for your reference:

     

    Solution 1: Create an item first, and delete the item if the approval is rejected.

     

    Solution 2:Do not submit the form , pass the value of the record to be submitted to flow, and creates the record in flow after approval is approved.

     

    Best Regards,
