select multiple document to approve from sharepoint online

Dear All Experts,

 

For my scenario, I want to select multiple documents in the Sharepoint document and then trigger the power automate for approval.

but I found that it allows only a single document and the point is on the Sharepoint document, I enabled "Document ID" to track the document.

Is there has any way to select multiple documents for approval?

Hi,

 

One quick fix is, place the documents in a folder and initiate the workflow for the folder.

I have already tried that. It doesn't work and I got the error that "File not found". Is it work on your flow, how?

 For my flow as in the picture below, the trigger is correct, right?  I have already done as you said. The error appeared like this.

Hi mmchx,

 

I created a sample flow as when a file is added to the folder, I am triggering approval for the entire folder. (assuming that's what your requirement is!)

Below is my flow:

I added the trigger as "When a file added to folder":
