Notify a team of new Sharepoint files

16 July 2023

In today's article we will see how we can create a notification in a team every time a new file is added For those who have used SharePoint in the past will remember that there was a similar feature ( which still exists ) alert me in some SharePoint libraries . So here we have a similar function or one that can be used in more complicated scenarios First from our active M365 subscription we select in the left old popup column Power Automates There from the available template automates we need to locate Notify a team of SharePoint files

In the next step we should allow all connections and click continue

In the next step we will have to fill in first the site and then the library and the specific folder in which every time a new file is added it will send a notification to the teams The next elements to fill in are the team and the channel within it that will be created

As you can see in the body in the first box we have added the site and the library And in the second box we have the creation of the adaptive card .At the same time inside the adaptive card you can make additions and changes according to your liking

In the next step we have to save the Power automate.

In the next step we have to do a check for the correct operation of the automate manually.

We go to the library we've chosen and upload a new file.

As you can see, automate is running without any problems.

And finally, if we go to the IT Department, we see that Power automate has created an adaptive card where you can see the name of the new file and there's a button to link to the file itself.
