Hi @SayandSajith1,

A rule is a SharePoint feature, that is something different than a Power Automate cloud flow (which we are discussing on these forums).

That being said, what are your permissions on the list/library? Can you double check this?

Hi @Expiscornovus ,

Thanks for your response. I am finding it really hard to find a solution to this problem. I did reach out to the SharePoint community and had no luck. I double checked the permissions for the site, list and looks to be okay. I would appreciate any guidance on troubleshooting!

Hi @SayandSajith1,

What type of permission level do you have on the list. Do you have read, contribute, edit or full control?

Hi @Expiscornovus, I am setup with Full Control and part of the Owners permission group of the site and the list.
