How to Declare a SharePoint document as Record using Power Automate (Microsoft Flow).

Let’s say you have a document library and you’d like to lock some documents after changing its status. For example, it could be a document library with business plans, when a business plan status is changed to ‘Approved’ it should be locked and no longer available for deleting and changing.

1

To achieve the goal you can use Declare SharePoint Document as Record action from Plumsail Actions for Power Automate.

2

This Microsoft Flow runs when the status of the business plans is changed, it checks if the status is ‘Approved’ and locks the file.

3

As a result, the business plan is locked and can’t be changed or deleted.
