Objectifs :

This document aims to provide a comprehensive guide on creating specific Power Automate flows from a SharePoint library or list. It outlines the steps to build a flow that integrates with forms for incident management, detailing how to structure forms and lists, set triggers, and manage responses effectively.

Chapitres :

  1. Introduction to Power Automate Flows
    Power Automate allows users to create automated workflows between applications and services. This guide focuses on generating flows from SharePoint libraries or lists, which can streamline processes such as incident management.
  2. Creating a Flow from SharePoint
    To create a flow, you can use the 'Integrate' button or access it directly from the ribbon in SharePoint. This method enables the creation of a prefilled flow associated with the list or library in use. However, the number of available flow templates is limited, so exploring the Power Automate templates menu or starting from an empty flow is recommended.
  3. Setting Up the Incident Management Form
    In this example, we will create a flow from an IT ticket and incident management form that employees can fill out. This flow will direct responses to two separate lists based on the subject of the request. Begin by building a structured form with relevant questions and creating two lists: one for tickets and another for general questions. Both lists must be stored in a SharePoint site to integrate them into the flow.
  4. Creating the Cloud Flow
    1. Create a new blank cloud flow and name it (e.g., 'IT Ticket'). 2. Associate the flow with the form completion event by selecting the form named 'Incident Report' as the trigger. 3. Add the action 'Get Response Details' and point it to the same form, choosing 'Response ID' as the identifier.
  5. Conditional Logic for List Population
    To determine which list to populate based on the incident type, add an 'If' conditional block. This block will retrieve the dynamic content type of the incident from the previous step. If the condition is met, add the action 'Create an Item' from the SharePoint action block, specifying the relevant list.
  6. Filling in List Fields
    1. Enter the site where your list is located and select the relevant list. 2. Display advanced settings to fill in the available fields. For example: - Item Title: Corresponds to the question. - Requester: Email of the person who submitted the form. - Question: Detailed description of the problem. - Date: Submission date of the form. - Status: Default to 'To Be Processed'. - Technician: To be entered manually later.
  7. Handling General Questions
    If the form does not contain a general question, feed the other list by adding a 'Create Item' action in the conditional block. Ensure that the form fields are associated with the corresponding fields in the IT ticket list. Note that Power Automate will list the options set in the choice list by default.
  8. User Confirmation and Flow Testing
    Finally, send a message using the flow bot to confirm receipt of the ticket or request to the user who filled out the form. Customize the message for each case. Save and test your flow by using the form sharing link and filling it out from another account. Once submitted, the flow will execute, and the user will receive a chatbot message confirming the success of their submission.
  9. Conclusion
    By following these steps, you will have created a fully functional flow that integrates with Microsoft Lists, allowing for efficient management of IT tickets and incident requests. This automation not only streamlines the process but also enhances communication with users.

FAQ :

What is Power Automate used for?

Power Automate is used to create automated workflows that connect different applications and services, allowing users to automate repetitive tasks, synchronize data, and improve efficiency.

How do I create a flow in Power Automate?

To create a flow in Power Automate, you can start from a template or create a blank flow. You will need to define a trigger, add actions, and configure the flow according to your needs.

What types of triggers can I use in Power Automate?

Triggers in Power Automate can include events such as form submissions, new items in a SharePoint list, or changes in data across various applications.

Can I customize the messages sent by the flow?

Yes, you can customize the messages sent by the flow, including personalizing them based on the user's input or the context of the request.

What should I do if my flow doesn't work as expected?

If your flow doesn't work as expected, check the trigger and actions for any errors, review the dynamic content being used, and ensure that all connections to services are properly configured.

Quelques cas d'usages :

IT Ticket Management

An organization can use Power Automate to streamline its IT ticket management process. By creating a flow that captures incident reports through a structured form, the flow can automatically categorize and route tickets to the appropriate teams based on the type of incident reported.

Employee Onboarding

During the employee onboarding process, a flow can be created to automate the collection of necessary documents and information from new hires. This flow can send reminders, track submissions, and update HR systems automatically.

Customer Support Requests

A customer support team can implement a flow to manage incoming support requests. By using a form for customers to submit their issues, the flow can categorize requests, assign them to support agents, and send confirmation messages to customers.

Event Registration

For event management, a flow can be set up to handle registrations. When a participant fills out a registration form, the flow can automatically add their details to a SharePoint list, send confirmation emails, and notify the event organizers.

to do this. Use the integrate button or directly on the ribbon.
00:00:15
This method allows you to create a prefilled flow
00:00:18
associated with the list or library you are using.
00:00:22
However, the number of flow templates offered is quite limited.
00:00:27
I recommend going through the power automate templates
00:00:29
menu or starting from an empty flow.
00:00:33
In this example,
00:00:34
we will create a flow from an it ticket
00:00:36
and incident management form that employees can fill out.
00:00:40
This flow will feed two separate lists depending on the subject of the request.
00:00:45
Start by building a structured form with questions related
00:00:48
to the incident and create two structured lists,
00:00:52
a list for tickets. Another for general questions,
00:00:56
these lists must be stored in a SharePoint site as this
00:00:59
is a necessary condition to integrate them into the flow.
00:01:03
Each list will contain fields to accommodate information
00:01:06
from the forms form in various formats,
00:01:09
text choice list, et cetera.
00:01:13
Create a new blank cloud flow and name it.
00:01:16
In our case, we will name it
00:01:18
it ticket.
00:01:20
Now associated with the forms form completion event,
00:01:25
select the form to monitor here named it incident report.
00:01:30
This will be our trigger
00:01:32
to exploit the items filled in by the user
00:01:34
in the form and integrate them into the list.
00:01:36
Add the action, get response details,
00:01:42
point it to the same form and then choose response ID as the id.
00:01:48
Depending on the type of incident, the flow will decide which list to feed
00:01:53
for this. We will add an if conditional block
00:01:57
that will retrieve the dynamic content type of incident from
00:02:00
the previous step and determine which list to feed.
00:02:05
Test the word others respecting the case displayed in the form
00:02:10
if the condition is met,
00:02:11
add the action create an item from the SharePoint action block.
00:02:16
Note that a SharePoint item is always associated with a
00:02:19
list and more precisely with a row in that list,
00:02:22
a
00:02:22
file or folder is not considered a SharePoint item.
00:02:26
Enter the site where your list is located and the relevant list
00:02:31
display the advanced settings to fill in the different available fields.
00:02:35
For example, the item title will be question,
00:02:38
retrieve the dynamic contents from the action,
00:02:41
obtaining form response details and populate the corresponding fields.
00:02:45
For example,
00:02:46
the requester will correspond to the email of the person who submitted the form.
00:02:50
The question will correspond to the detailed description of the problem.
00:02:54
The date will be the one when the form was submitted
00:02:58
the status of the question.
00:02:59
A choice list field in your list will default to to be processed
00:03:04
the technician. Meanwhile will be entered manually later
00:03:09
customize the action block name for detail.
00:03:12
If the form does not contain a general question feed,
00:03:16
the other list by adding a create item action in the conditional block,
00:03:20
associate the form fields with the corresponding fields in the it ticket list.
00:03:26
Be careful. Power automate will list by default.
00:03:29
The options set in the choice list,
00:03:31
make sure to retrieve the response in the completed form.
00:03:35
The form field names do not need to match those of the list fields.
00:03:39
Although it facilitates identification,
00:03:44
finally send a message with the flow bot to the user who filled out the form,
00:03:50
confirming receipt of their ticket or request
00:03:58
add for each of the two cases. A personalized message
00:04:03
save and test your flow.
00:04:05
Use the form sharing link and fill it out from another account.
00:04:10
Choosing other for the first case
00:04:14
once submitted, the flow will execute and confirm its success.
00:04:18
The user will receive a chatbot message and your questions list will be populated
00:04:23
do the same for an incident.
00:04:25
For example, a request for assistance following a network failure,
00:04:29
submit the completed form.
00:04:31
The user will receive a message and the other list will be populated.
00:04:36
Your flow from the form associated with
00:04:38
Microsoft list will then be fully functional.

para o fazer. Use o botão de integração ou diretamente na faixa de fita.
00:00:15
Este método permite criar um fluxo pré-preenchido
00:00:18
associado à lista ou biblioteca que está a utilizar.
00:00:22
No entanto, o número de modelos de fluxo oferecidos é bastante limitado.
00:00:27
Recomendo a leitura dos modelos de power automatize
00:00:29
menu ou a partir de um fluxo vazio.
00:00:33
Neste exemplo,
00:00:34
criaremos um fluxo a partir de um bilhete de TI
00:00:36
e formulário de gestão de incidentes que os funcionários podem preencher.
00:00:40
Este fluxo alimentará duas listas separadas, dependendo do assunto do pedido.
00:00:45
Comece por construir um formulário estruturado com questões relacionadas
00:00:48
ao incidente e criar duas listas estruturadas,
00:00:52
uma lista de bilhetes. Outra para questões gerais,
00:00:56
estas listas devem ser armazenadas num site do SharePoint como esta
00:00:59
é uma condição necessária para integrá-los no fluxo.
00:01:03
Cada lista conterá campos para acomodar informações
00:01:06
a partir da forma de formulários em vários formatos,
00:01:09
lista de escolha de texto, etc.
00:01:13
Crie um novo fluxo de nuvem em branco e nomeia-o.
00:01:16
No nosso caso, vamos nomeá-lo
00:01:18
seu bilhete.
00:01:20
Agora associado ao evento de preenchimento de formulários,
00:01:25
seleccione o formulário a monitorizar aqui denominado relatório de incidentes.
00:01:30
Este será o nosso gatilho
00:01:32
para explorar os itens preenchidos pelo utilizador
00:01:34
na forma e integrá-los na lista.
00:01:36
Adicione a ação, obtenha detalhes da resposta,
00:01:42
aponte-o para o mesmo formulário e escolha o ID da resposta como o id.
00:01:48
Dependendo do tipo de incidente, o fluxo decidirá qual lista alimentar
00:01:53
para isso. Vamos adicionar um bloco if condicional
00:01:57
que irá recuperar o tipo de incidente de conteúdo dinâmico de
00:02:00
o passo anterior e determinar qual a lista a alimentar.
00:02:05
Teste a palavra “outros” respeitando o caso apresentado no formulário
00:02:10
se a condição estiver preenchida,
00:02:11
adicione a ação criar um item a partir do bloco de ação do SharePoint.
00:02:16
Note que um item do SharePoint está sempre associado a um
00:02:19
lista e mais precisamente com uma linha nessa lista,
00:02:22
a
00:02:22
o ficheiro ou pasta não é considerado um item do SharePoint.
00:02:26
Introduza o site onde a sua lista está localizada e a lista relevante
00:02:31
exibir as configurações avançadas para preencher os diferentes campos disponíveis.
00:02:35
Por exemplo, o título do item será a pergunta,
00:02:38
recuperar os conteúdos dinâmicos da acção,
00:02:41
obter detalhes de resposta do formulário e preencher os campos correspondentes.
00:02:45
Por exemplo,
00:02:46
o solicitante corresponderá ao e-mail da pessoa que submeteu o formulário.
00:02:50
A pergunta corresponderá à descrição pormenorizada do problema.
00:02:54
A data será aquela em que o formulário foi submetido
00:02:58
o estatuto da questão.
00:02:59
Um campo de lista de opções na sua lista será o padrão para ser processado
00:03:04
o técnico. Entretanto, será introduzido manualmente mais tarde
00:03:09
personalizar o nome do bloco de ação para obter detalhes.
00:03:12
Se o formulário não contiver um feed geral de perguntas,
00:03:16
a outra lista adicionando uma acção de criação de item no bloco condicional,
00:03:20
associe os campos do formulário aos campos correspondentes na lista de bilhetes de TI.
00:03:26
Tenha cuidado. O Power Automate será listado por predefinição.
00:03:29
As opções definidas na lista de opções,
00:03:31
certifique-se de recuperar a resposta no formulário preenchido.
00:03:35
Os nomes dos campos do formulário não precisam corresponder aos dos campos da lista.
00:03:39
Embora facilite a identificação,
00:03:44
finalmente enviar uma mensagem com o bot de fluxo para o utilizador que preencheu o formulário,
00:03:50
confirmando a recepção do seu bilhete ou pedido
00:03:58
acrescentar para cada um dos dois casos. Uma mensagem personalizada
00:04:03
salve e teste o seu fluxo.
00:04:05
Utilize o link de partilha do formulário e preencha-o a partir de outra conta.
00:04:10
Escolher outro para o primeiro caso
00:04:14
uma vez submetido, o fluxo será executado e confirmará o seu sucesso.
00:04:18
O utilizador receberá uma mensagem de chatbot e a sua lista de perguntas será preenchida
00:04:23
fazer o mesmo para um incidente.
00:04:25
Por exemplo, um pedido de assistência na sequência de uma falha na rede,
00:04:29
submeter o formulário preenchido.
00:04:31
O utilizador receberá uma mensagem e a outra lista será preenchida.
00:04:36
O seu fluxo a partir do formulário associado com
00:04:38
A lista da Microsoft estará então totalmente funcional.
