Learn how to easily automate copying data from one SharePoint list to another using Microsoft Power Automate in this step-by-step tutorial!
Stop manually copying and pasting! In this video, we'll build a Power Automate flow that automatically transfers items (rows) from a source list to a destination list whenever new items are created or modified (depending on your trigger choice).
*What you'll learn:*
Setting up the correct Power Automate trigger (e.g., "When an item is created" or "When an item is created or modified").
Using the "Get item" or "Get items" action (if needed).
Configuring the "Create item" action to add data to the destination list.
Mapping columns/fields between the source and destination lists correctly.
Handling potential issues and best practices.
Testing your flow to ensure it works as expected.
This is perfect for:
Creating backup lists.
Moving approved items to a separate list.
Consolidating data from multiple lists.
Anyone looking to automate repetitive tasks in SharePoint and Microsoft 365.
