I used to use the when modified and when new item triggers a lot in SharePoint.
My new favorite trigger for Power Automate is For a Selected Item/File.

Selected file trigger is a type of trigger in Microsoft Power Automate is used to automate based on the selection of a file or files from a specified location or folder. This trigger is commonly used to automate tasks such as file backups, syncing files across platforms, or processing files with specific file types or names.

The Selected item trigger is a type of trigger in Microsoft Power Automate is used to automate based on the selection of an item or items from a specified data source or application. This trigger is commonly used to automate tasks such as sending email notifications, updating data in a database, or creating tasks based on selected items.
