Microsoft Flow Now Integrates with SharePoint Document Libraries

In an announcement, the company says Microsoft Flow users can manage output across a team and see metadata updates from team members with SharePoint document Libraries integration.

Flow is now integrated with SharePoint document libraries. The release means users can add Flows directly into document libraries. In the announcement, Microsoft says that Flow can now also be launched on demand. This is achieved by a single button on modern lists and libraries.

The new integration allows users to build a Flow across a team and let them place their input into a document library as metadata. This is ideal for users who want to share a new document through a team and see updates.

In the blog post, Microsoft also answers a familiar question about how usage should be governed:

“We recommend that Admins review the data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities for Microsoft Flow. All Office 365 Admins can sign into the Flow administration site without the need for any additional licenses, and set up rules that determine how data can flow between different Office 365 components (such as SharePoint, Outlook, Yammer) and other Microsoft and third party services.”

Microsoft will begin roll out of the new integration on the First Release program during this month. Additionally, the company will keep making improvements based on customer feedback.
