Hello,
is there any possibility to create a new list view by a flow? What I want to do is the following:
I have a list where all employees of our department are stored. In a second list we manage our tasks. Each employee has his own view, this view is formatted by JSON. Now I want to create a new list view when I add a new employee.
Is there any solution for this?
Thank you!
Hi @chhe
There's no out-of-the box action to do this but I believe it can be done either using the Sharepoint HTTP action (Sharepoint REST API) or setting up a Custom connector (again, it's the Sharepoint REST API).
I have personally not done this but it looks like someone has here. http://blog.techperspect.com/2015/07/create-list-view-using-sharepoint-rest.html

I have found a guide to create a list view:
http://www.ludovicperrichon.com/sharepoint-rest-api-call-with-powerautomate/#createlistview
But I have a problem:
The list view I want to create has a JSON formatted view. The JSON code is about 500 rows long. I have put the following text in die HTTP request:
{
"__metadata": {
"type": "SP.View"
},
"ViewType": "HTML",
"Title": "testAngelegt",
"DefaultView": false,
"PersonalView": false,
"CustomFormatter": "JSON_CODE"
}
But I run into a timeout. If I put a short JSON Code everything works fine. I can't believe that it's not possible to send a longer JSON Code via HTTP request. Is there any solution for this?
