Publishing a SharePoint document using Flow

Hello there,

I am still however living the SharePoint dream and have been fully operational since my last post.

I thought I would share something I created as a prototype as I couldn't find anything out there on the net covering the ask.

In short, I was asked if it is possible to get a Flow to publish a document. I saw various answers including using content approval and various other things. None of which quite met the need for my customer.

I found it is possible to get flow to publish a file in sharepoint only that you have to do it via a REST call. Screen shot provided which shows first a check out, then a check in with publishing a major version.

Let me know if it helps,

Phil
