I need to create a Flow that alerts me when someone updates an Excel file which is stored in a Teams document library. I can't figure out how to even start this flow!

    Hi @sw138 ,

     

    Basically, the files uploaded in Teams are stored in the SharePoint Document library, and each channel corresponds to a Folder.

     

    If you need to monitor whether a file in a channel is changed, you can directly use SharePoint connector- When a file is created or modified (properties only) as a trigger.

    Please take a try and feel free to let us know if you have any questions.
