This flow adds every new contract to a contract register list. Press **Run** to watch it. Node Output in this run Every trigger and node needs a SharePoint connection, signed in with OAuth or a service principal. See [Connect Microsoft 365](https://docs.noxus.ai/integrations/providers/microsoft.md) to set one up, including how to limit a service principal to chosen sites with `Sites.Selected`. ## Triggers The trigger checks the folder every minute. Files already in the folder when you turn the trigger on do not start a flow. With **File updated**, they do once their content changes. What it does ## Nodes The file nodes work with files and folders in document libraries. The list nodes work with SharePoint lists. | Node | What it does | | - | - | | [Read SharePoint Files](#read-sharepoint-files) | Downloads files, every file in a folder, or site pages | | [Write SharePoint File](#write-sharepoint-file) | Uploads a file to a folder | | [Update SharePoint File](#update-sharepoint-file) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Replaces a file's content, keeping its ID and link | | [List SharePoint Folder](#list-sharepoint-folder) | Lists what is in a folder | | [Search SharePoint Files](#search-sharepoint-files) | Finds files by name or content | | [Create SharePoint Folder](#create-sharepoint-folder) | Creates a folder | | [Move SharePoint File](#move-sharepoint-file) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Moves or renames a file or folder | | [Delete SharePoint File](#delete-sharepoint-file) | Moves a file or folder to the site's recycle bin | | [Get SharePoint Metadata](#get-sharepoint-metadata) | Gets a file's or folder's details | | [Create SharePoint Sharing Link](#create-sharepoint-sharing-link) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Creates a link to a file or folder | | [Share SharePoint File With People](#share-sharepoint-file-with-people) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Gives people access to a file or folder | | [List SharePoint Sites](#list-sharepoint-sites) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Lists the sites the connection can reach | | [List SharePoint Lists](#list-sharepoint-lists) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Lists the lists in a site | | [Get SharePoint List](#get-sharepoint-list) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Gets a list and its columns | | [Get SharePoint List Items](#get-sharepoint-list-items) | Reads items from a list | | [Create SharePoint List Item](#create-sharepoint-list-item) | Adds an item to a list | | [Update SharePoint List Items](#update-sharepoint-list-items) | Updates the items that match | | [Delete SharePoint List Items](#delete-sharepoint-list-items) [From 1.11.0](https://docs.noxus.ai/core/changelog.md#1-11-0) | Deletes the items that match | The file nodes point at a file or folder through **Source**: **Pick from SharePoint** to choose it in the editor, **By ID** to bind an ID, or **By path**. A path is the site, the library, then the folders, such as `Site/Documents/Reports/file.pdf`. A path without a site runs in the root site. The list nodes pick a **Site** and a **List** from dropdowns. Bind a variable to **Site** to pass a site ID or a full site URL, which is how you reach a subsite. What it does ## Working with several list items Bind a list to a row in **Values**, **Set values** or **Match items where** and the node runs once for each entry. A multi-value column takes a bound list as its whole value instead. Update and Delete write each matched item on its own. When some fail, the run fails with a message that names which items changed and which did not. Running the node again is safe: it retries the failed items. ## Troubleshooting > [accordion] A file did not start the trigger > > Files already in the folder when the trigger was turned on start a flow only once their content changes, and only with **File updated**. Check **Events**: with only **File created**, changes to existing files are ignored. Files in subfolders start a flow only with **Include subfolders** on. > [accordion] This SharePoint connection can't read the whole document library that holds the folder... > > The trigger watches changes across the whole library, so the connection needs access to all of it, not only to the folder. > [accordion] The watched SharePoint folder was deleted or moved to another document library... > > Open the trigger and pick the folder again. > [accordion] The watched folder has more than 10,000 files and folders... > > Pick a smaller folder, or turn off **Include subfolders**. > [accordion] The file is larger than ... MB, the most this trigger downloads... > > The file is skipped. Make it smaller, or move it out of the watched folder. > [accordion] SharePoint rejected the connection... > > Reconnect SharePoint and run the flow again. See [Connect Microsoft 365](https://docs.noxus.ai/integrations/providers/microsoft.md). > [accordion] The SharePoint connection doesn't have permission to do this with ... > > Uploading, updating, moving, deleting and sharing need write access. Reconnect SharePoint with **Read & write sites**. For a service principal, see [Connect Microsoft 365](https://docs.noxus.ai/integrations/providers/microsoft.md). > [accordion] ... is not a SharePoint site, a library, or a folder in the default library > > Start the path with the site's name, then the library, then the folders, such as `Finance/Documents/Reports`. > [accordion] Item ... not found in any accessible drive > > **By ID** looks in the root site's libraries. For a file in another site, use the picker or a path that starts with the site. > [accordion] SharePoint can only move items within the same drive > > Move SharePoint File moves items within one document library. Use Read SharePoint Files and Write SharePoint File to copy a file to another library. > [accordion] An item named ... already exists in the destination folder > > Give the item a **New name**, or move or delete the item that is already there. > [accordion] SharePoint Site Pages can only be read... > > Pick a file from a document library instead of a site page. > [accordion] SharePoint refused to share this with anyone who has the link... > > Your organisation may not allow links that anyone can open. Set **Who can open** to **People in my organisation**, or reconnect SharePoint with write access. > [accordion] Couldn't share with one or more of these people... > > Your organisation may not allow sharing with people outside it, or they may need to be added as a guest first. > [accordion] SharePoint denied access to this list... > > Check that the connection can read the site. A service principal limited with `Sites.Selected` reaches only the sites it was granted. > [accordion] SharePoint list or site not found... > > Check the selected **Site** and **List**. A bound site must be a site ID or a full site URL. > [accordion] Fill in the item ID or at least one column to match... > > Update and Delete refuse to change every item in a list. Fill in **ID** or at least one column in **Match items where**. > [accordion] More than 500 items match... > > Narrow the filters, or update or delete in batches. > [accordion] Updated ... of ... items; ... failed... > > Some items were written and some were not. The message lists both. Run the node again to retry the failed items. The same applies to `Deleted ... of ... items`. > [accordion] Unknown time zone ... > > Use an IANA time zone name, such as `Europe/Madrid`, in **Site time zone**.
