Add and Delete your SharePoint List from Excel Table data

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 379

I am a new user of power automate and I am looking for a power automate flow can do the following:

 

1. Reads data from an Excel table and then only add rows to a SharePoint list when these rows do not yet exist in my SP list.

2. Delete rows from my SP list when items are no longer listed in the Excel workbook but are still listed in the SP list.

 

Would be very much interested in seeing some example flows that can handle this scenario.

 

Thank you very much.

    No basically want I want to accomplish is to compare a SharePoint List with an Excel table and then delete any items from the SP list  that do not appear in the Excel table, in addition, Create items in my SharePoint list when new items are listed within the workbook.

    Yes I tried using the same flow but the issue I am having is the following:

     

    In my SharePoint list I have 3 columns that are used by our users to enter tracking information, so the moment I rerun the flow that tracking information is being removed? I guess because the flow is actually recreating the rows that are coming from the excel table.
