SharePoint Flow: How to Track Field Changes with Precision

Key insights

• SharePoint lets you track changes made to fields in a list or library, helping teams manage updates easily.
  
• You can use Power Automate to create a flow that detects when a specific field has changed in SharePoint.
  
• The flow starts with a trigger like "When an item is modified" to monitor any updates in your SharePoint list.
  
• Add the Get changes for an item or file action to compare the current and previous versions of the item and identify which fields have changed.
  
• You can set conditions in your flow logic so it only takes action (like sending notifications) if the field you care about was updated.
  
• This process helps automate alerts, approvals, or record-keeping based on changes made to important fields in SharePoint.
