Update Field when Content Approval Status is Tagged as "Approved"

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 11

Hi!,

 

I'm new in building flows for SharePoint List 🙂

Just wanted to ask if it is possible to update item when Content Approval Status is changed?

for example:

Approval Status = Pending

Date = (blank)

 

Then if approval is changed like this:

Approval Status = Approved

Date = Today's date

 

Thank you in Advance! 🙂

    Hi , @geenee 

    According to your description, you want to update the Date column when the [Approval Status] column changed to the "Approved":

    This is my flow:

    vyueyunmsft_1-1709263237058.png

    (1)The trigger , you need to set the trigger condition in the setting of the trigger.

    vyueyunmsft_2-1709263294167.png

    @equals( triggerOutputs()?['body/ApprovalStatus/Value'] ,'Approved')

     

    (2)The "Get changes" action:

    vyueyunmsft_3-1709263345293.png

    sub(int(triggerOutputs()?['body/{VersionNumber}']),1)

    For this , you can refer to :
    Power Automate: Start a Flow from a column change – Ben Prins

     

    (3)The condition and the update item action:

    vyueyunmsft_4-1709263401645.png

    formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-dd')

     

    And you need to replace your internal columnname in your side.
