Chapitres :

  1. Introduction to Instant Flows
    Instant flows are automated workflows that can be triggered manually by users. This guide will demonstrate how to set up an instant flow that posts messages in a Microsoft Teams channel whenever a file is added to a SharePoint document library.
  2. Creating the Flow
    To begin creating your instant flow, follow these steps: 1. **Select a Flow Template**: Start by choosing a flow template that suits your needs. 2. **Choose the Button Category**: Search for the flow using relevant keywords. 3. **Select the Appropriate Flow**: Look for the flow that integrates SharePoint and Teams.
  3. Configuring the Flow
    Once you have selected the flow, you will be redirected to the flow construction space, which is prefilled with the template. Here’s how to configure it: 1. **Define the Team or SharePoint Site**: Specify the team or SharePoint site associated with the flow. 2. **Customize the Flow Trigger**: Add a customizable message and an additional date field to indicate when the file was added.
  4. Retrieving File Information
    The next step involves retrieving the file information to generate the message for the team. Follow these steps: 1. **Specify the Team and Library**: Indicate the team and the specific document library concerned. 2. **Define the Channel**: In the final step, specify the channel and team that will receive the message.
  5. Finalizing the Message
    The message that will be sent to the team will include: - A standard text - An HTML link pointing to the file - The file's name - A sentence followed by the date field added earlier After configuring these elements, save your flow.
  6. Testing the Flow
    To test your flow: 1. **Access the SharePoint Site**: Navigate to the SharePoint site corresponding to your team. 2. **Select a File**: Choose a file and click on the three small dots in the menu. 3. **Automate the Process**: Select 'Automate' and find your flow, which may require connector validation. 4. **Fill in Required Fields**: During the first use, fill in the message and date fields. 5. **Check the Generated Message**: After execution, verify the message in the team’s channel.
  7. Troubleshooting
    If the link appears as plain text, you will need to manually correct the HTML code. To do this: 1. **Return to Your Flow**: Go back to the flow settings. 2. **Switch to Code Editing Mode**: Use the icon at the top right to access code editing. 3. **Adjust the HTML Syntax**: Make the necessary adjustments to the HTML code. 4. **Test Again**: Run the flow once more and check the message in the team’s channel.
  8. Conclusion
    Your instant flow is now fully functional. By following these steps, you can automate the process of posting messages in Microsoft Teams whenever a file is added to SharePoint, enhancing team communication and efficiency.

00:00:05
flow to post a team's message in a specific channel.
00:00:08
When you add a file,
00:00:10
this flow will be manually triggered by you or a member of your team.

First select a flow template,
00:00:18
choose the button category and search for the flow using a keyword.
00:00:24
Select the flow that associates SharePoint and teams.
00:00:29
After validation,
00:00:30
you will be redirected to the flow construction space prefilled by the template.
00:00:36
You can configure the steps there starting by defining
00:00:39
the team or SharePoint site associated with it.
00:00:43
In

В этом руководстве вы узнаете, как создать мгновенный
00:00:05
поток для публикации сообщения команды в определенном канале.
00:00:08
Когда вы добавляете файл,
00:00:10
этот процесс будет запущен вручную вами или членом вашей команды.
00:00:14
Сначала выберите шаблон потока,
00:00:18
выберите категорию кнопок и найдите поток по ключевому слову.
00:00:24
Выберите поток, связывающий SharePoint и команды.
00:00:29
После проверки
00:00:30
вы будете перенаправлены в пространство для построения потока, предварительно заполненное шаблоном.
00:00:36
Здесь вы можете настроить шаги, начиная с определения
00:00:39
связанную с ней команду или сайт SharePoint.
00:00:43
В
00:00:43
В данном примере это библиотека документов, связанная с этим потоком
00:00:48
сопроводите триггер потока настраиваемым сообщением и добавьте
00:00:52
дополнительное поле даты, указывающее дату добавления файла.
00:00:56
Второй этап процесса включает извлечение
00:00:58
информация о файле для генерации сообщения команды.
00:01:00
Укажите команду и соответствующую библиотеку. Снова.
00:01:06
На последнем этапе определите канал и команду, которая получит сообщение.
00:01:11
Это сообщение будет предварительно заполнено стандартным текстом,
00:01:14
ссылка в формате html, указывающая на файл и его имя,
00:01:19
добавьте предложение, а затем поле даты, добавленное на первом шаге.
00:01:26
Сохраните свой поток. Кнопка тестирования не нужна для мгновенного потока
00:01:32
для проверки функциональности.
00:01:34
Перейдите на сайт SharePoint, соответствующий команде вашей команды.
00:01:38
Выберите файл,
00:01:40
нажмите на три маленькие точки в меню и выберите автоматизировать,
00:01:44
найдите свой поток, для которого потребуется проверка соединителя. Во время первого использования
00:01:51
заполните поля сообщения и даты.
00:01:54
После выполнения проверьте сгенерированное сообщение в канале команды.
00:01:58
Если ссылка отображается в виде текста, вам нужно будет вручную исправить html-код.
00:02:04
Вернитесь к своему потоку.
00:02:05
Переключитесь в режим редактирования кода с помощью значка в правом верхнем углу и настройте синтаксис html.
00:02:10
Еще раз протестируйте процесс и ознакомьтесь с сообщением команды.
00:02:14
Теперь ваш мгновенный поток работает на 100%.
