Specify the trigger in Business Central
In the following examples, you'll see how to make a flow when you're using events in Business Central as triggers.
Create an item in SharePoint when the item is created in Business Central
If you want to publish all your new items from Business Central with some details on your SharePoint product list, this flow can automate it.
Fill in a Flow name and select the trigger When a record is created (Business Central). Select Create and follow these steps.
Select PRODUCTION as the Environment name and select the Company name you want to use. In the Table name field, select items and then select +Next step to add an action.
Find the Business Central connector and select the Get record action to acquire content from the chosen table in the previous step.
Use the same Environment name, Company name and Table name as you already used in the trigger.
As a Row ID, select Row ID from Dynamic content, as Dynamics content represents content you can take from another action as expressions and Row ID is an unique identifier of the row to retrieve.
Click +Next step to add an action.
