not all SharePoint lists are shown when creating trigger/action?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I have 7 regular lists and 2 Task lists.

When I create a Flow trigger / action related to a SharePoint list, I only see three of them: Decisions, Project changes, Status report.

Using custom value to manually enter the name of a list has no effect.

 

Any idea why lists are missing and/or how to create a flow for these lists?

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    They are two different types when you create them in SharePoint apps.

    There are no subsites. I believe I only have access to that particular site, so: pretty sure they are all under this site. 

    When I use the Microsoft Graph API they do show up.

    What is the difference between a regular list and a Task list? If needed I could convert the Task list to a regular one.

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Did you make sure that those list are all under this site? Is it possible that some of them are under the subsite of this site?

     

    About Task list, it is not supported in flow so far. You could post idea if you need this:
