One Drive file - last modified by NAME

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

I have shared an Excelfile on One Drive with many people. The flow rule is being triggered on chnages made to the files in a folder. The action should be to send an email to my attention.

file in folder modified --> send email

This email should include 1.) the file name and 2.) the name of user which has done the modification (last modified by xyz).

First part is no problem, but I am not able to pull the name out of the system.

Any ideas?

    Hi,

    I have used the trigger

    "beim Ändern einer Datei (nur Metadaten)--> Dateimetadaten über ID abrufen --> E-Mail senden"

    Not 100% sure how this is in English, but should be something like:

     

    "on changes of a file (only Metadata): path of folder --> call file meta data via ID: path to the specific file--> send E-Mail: "

     

    Subject: The file "Name" has been changed

    Body:

     Hi, <br>

    the file <i> "DisplayName" <i><br> has been changed by <i>"LastModifiedBy" </i><br><br>

     

    check it out: <br>

    <a href=URL pointing to file</a>

     

    Hope, this helps a bit

    Hi Melinda,

     

    I understood that the Last Modified Name feature is now enabled in Flows. But could you please guide us on how to fetch the last modified name in Sharepoint flows.

    I'm able to reproduce this issue too. I'll ask the connector team about it and report back with a fix ETA.

    Thank you,

    except for LastModifiedBy: is Empty despite when I look on OneDrive and see a name clearly listed
