Posted on by HaveANiceDayMan

Hi,

I have been trying to create a simple flow, which would work between Teams Excel file, and Outlook.
The idea is simple:
as soon, as specific cell in a specific column is edited in Excel file, some people will receive an email regarding this.

Sadly, I am not sure how to define conditions in Microsoft Flows.

I bet I would need to use, a flow like below:

After creation/ modification of file
Condition with described column, cells, which triggers email creation if edited
Send an email

The question is:
how should I setup conditions in second point of the flow?
What type of commands shall I use?

Thanks in advance for helping me out

Hi @HaveANiceDayMan ,

I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in Microsoft Flow currently.

The flow can't monitor the change of a specific cell in a specific column in a file.

Here is a similar idea with your issue, you can vote here:
