Re: Flow not triggered when file is created

Hi @PeggyLang ,

Please consider using When a file is created (properties only) as a trigger to configure Flow and try to see if Flow can be triggered normally.

Best Regards,

Re: Flow not triggered when file is created

@v-bacao-msft , I am totally stumped. I started out with 'when a file is created (properties only)' and the flow would not trigger. Then I changed it to 'when a file is created' still flow would not trigger.
Have changed back to 'when a file is created (properties only)' and flow is still not triggering.
I was hoping time away from my desk and then fresh eyes back on it would illuminate what must be obvious - but sadly not.

The above is the trigger. My test is 'I will perform the trigger action'. I then add a file to the folder '2020'.

Re: Flow not triggered when file is created

I keep thinking about this and coming back to it hoping to find a solution.

This flow ran sucessfully on 10/7. Below is the trigger portion of the run history. I had made some folder in folder changes since then, but I went back in and changed it back to exactly what it was on 10/7. Flow is still not triggering.
It is either not connected - even though I checked my connections and they have green checkmarks beside them.
Or it is not recognizing that a file is created in the folder. I have had other flows run successfully today, flows connected to Microsoft Forms and a different Sharepoint site.
Perhaps of note the Sharepoint site in the flow below is the site of a Teams channel. Perhaps there has been some behind the scenes changes/updates where Teams sites/channels are involved? Sure hoping to get this resolved.
