How to trigger an automate flow only on SharePoint file content change

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

I am working on a document management system using SharePoint document Library, PowerApps and Power Automate.  I need an automated flow to change my document status to 'Drafts' every time it is modified after approval. 

 

When I use 'When an item or a file is modified' or  'When an item is created or modified' triggers, the flow gets triggered even for  file property changes and overrides all the different document statuses produced in a document life cycle. I need a trigger that fires only when the file content is changed. 

 

Do we have this trigger in automate? or is there a work around for the same?
