Hi @OzMatt - thank you for your patience as we've been triaging this request with both the SharePoint teams and the Power Automate teams. This is a feature ask for the SPO connector, it sounds like the request is asking for a new out-of-the-box action or to add a parameter like 'Update file' or 'Update file properties. This item has been added to the SharePoint team's backlog.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we have updated the status to 'Under Review',
Brilliant thanks for the reply I've attempted a number of ways to trigger the flow - now my issue is that the flow does not trigger - I want it to run when a file is modified but no luck
I'd really like to see a Rename file option as welll. I've been spending over an hour so far trying to copy file and then delete the original when rename would be so much easier.
We need a "Rename File" action asap. Building this manually from other actions is too timeconsuming, too complex for the average user, and too error-prone. Renaming files is simple from the SharePoint UI, simple from the Windows UI, so I'm suprised it's not already available. Make it so!
Microsoft, this is crazy that you cannot rename a file / specify a new name for a file in a document library through a Flow action. The only way to do this is to Create File and then use the Contents of the existing file, which then creates a new ID / additional record. It should be very easy to do this, and needs to be added urgently.
It's funny. After banging your head against the wall to do such a basic operation, you get a popup inquiering how likely would it be for you to recomend mcrosoft products to friend.
You should replace friend by enemy and you'll get all the stars in the sky.
