Flow to check a sharepoint list is updated, if so update contact list?

Posted on by JAy3k_1

I have just started to venture into Flow's and am looking for something that can do the following:

Checks a sharepoint file has been updated - which is a list file of email addresses,

Will then update multiple users contact lists with the newly updated contacts - without duplication.

Is this something that is possible? I have found this flow through CoPilot in the power to automate:

"When an item is updated in a sharepoint list, get contacts from a contacts folder and update them or create a new contact if needed"

I am in the flow, thinking this is the way forward, but am stuck getting the Site Address and List Name to work.

Failed to retrieve dynamic outputs. As a result, this operation's outputs might not be visible in subsequent actions. Error details: The dynamic operation request to API 'sharepointonline' operation 'GetTable' failed with status code 'BadRequest'. This may indicate invalid input parameters. Error response: { "status": 400, "message": "List View Not Found\r\nclientRequestId: 29e34b10-08d2-42f7-83ec-c700bbc135a9\r\nserviceRequestId: 29e34b10-08d2-42f7-83ec-c700bbc135a9" }

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

Yes, this is absolutely possible to do.

Are you able to post a screenshot of what you've done so far?

The first step will be:

"When a item or file is modified..."

You will point this at your specific library where your email addresses are stored.

However, I note that you say "list file of email addresses" and I'm not sure what that means. What's a list file? Is it Excel? If so, you'll need to ensure the data is in a Table. The table must be named.

When you refer to "update multiple users contact lists" - what do you mean by this? Do you mean that you have a list of contacts in a Microsoft List that you want to update? Or, are you talking about updating the Global Address Book, or Azure Active Directory? Or, are you talking about contact lists that multiple users own and manage?

Thanks for the reply @Rhiassuring

To be clear - the list file is an excel file imported to sharepoint, then formatted into a table with headings. This as far as I know has been successful. (Followed the guide) In regards to multiple users, i mean once the sharepoint file has been updated, each specified users Office 365 contacts lists will be updated with the new data.
