Run a Flow for a Selected File

Do you want to automate file related tasks in SharePoint?

You can with Power Automate!

You can build a flow in flow.microsoft.com using the For a selected file trigger and it will be available to run from SharePoint for any file you select.

You could create a flow that changes a document status from Draft to Reviewed then sends the file to your manager for him to approve it and then notifies you when they have approved it.

When you have the flow created and saved in power automate, it will be available to run in SharePoint.

1. Select the file you want to run the flow with.
2. Press the Automate button in the command ribbon.
3. Select the flow to run.

You can automate a lot or work with this!
