Flow to auto populate date field when status changes

Posted on by 7

Hello,

Fairly new to Power Automate so not a lot of background on this topic.  I have a SharePoint list with some columns that have a few choices.  I would like to auto populate a date column when the choice column changes for each items.  Some users forget to add the date so I would a flow that would trigger on the change of the status columns.  Sample below.  You can see that someone forgot to add a date for the review status.  Thanks in advance!!

    Hey @dnelson 

    You can use one of the following triggers, as per your choice:

    After that use condition to check the value of your choice column, and if it has changed to your value, you can use update item.
