"When a file is created in a folder" deprecated alternate

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 39

I have a flow that uses the SharePoint trigger "When a file is created in a folder".  I noticed that has been deprecated and I assume will eventually be removed as an option.

 

I use the "x-ms-file-etag" (this is the file path in a URL example below) value from this trigger

 

 "x-ms-file-etag": "\"<string of 36 numbers and characters>,1\"",

 The resulting string and the library ID number are inserted into an API call to set a sensitivity label.

 

With the trigger being deprecated does anyone have a suggestion for a alternate trigger that will include the  x-ms-file-etag or equivalent?

 

Thanks.

    I just found out the same. I suppose these MS flows are worthless. Waste of time.

    In the end I just set the SharePoint library default to the AIP classification I wanted so anytime a file is created it just auto classified.  This suits my needs as every file will always require the same classification label.

    @lfk73 How did it help you with the trigger?
    As if I understand correctly the AIP help you to secure files and classify them using a simple tag,

    So I don't understand how it helps with the deprecated trigger.
