Creating a dynamic SharePoint list based on a AD group?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by WOTPRO 26

Hi 

 

I am trying to wrap my head around how to create a power automate flow that keeps a staff list updated to the current employees. 

 

I have an AD group that i keep updated with all my current employees, is it possible to keep a list updated so when a person is added to this AD group a power automate flow gets triggered to add this user to the Sharepoint list and vice versa when the user is removed from the AD group a flow is triggered to remove said user from the SharePoint List?

    There's a Power Automate trigger called "When a Group Member is Added or Removed".  You can use that, and point it at the group you're monitoring.

     

    Next, a condition. You'll evaluate this condition:

     

    triggerBody()?[1]?['@removed/reason'] is equal to deleted
     
    If "true", then that means the user was removed. If "false", then a user was added.
     
    So on the "yes" path, you'll "Get Items" from your list, and Filter Query on the user to get the ID, and delete the record. 
     
    On the "no" path, you'll add a new record.

    Thank you very much, it worked like a charm once i figured out how to use Filter Query and a few other bits.
