I'm building a Flow to remove permissions

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by KP-30101602-0 3

I'm building a flow that resets all documents in a library back to its parents permissions but, I need to add a condition that will exclude a certain item.

I have done this, but it still seems to reset the parent permissions for the document. how can I fix the flow to ignore this document?

    Hello @KPSP ,

    it's hard to tell what's going on from the screenshot, but if you want to skip a specific file I'd use the 'Filter array' action.

    - get all documents in the library with unique permissions (as explained e.g. here)

    - use 'Filter array' remove the document from the result

    - restore permissions on all the remaining documents in a loop (using the !output of the filtered array!)
