Azure Logic Apps Toolbox 7-Resolve issues with the SharePoint Connector Thursday, March 11, 2021 10:45 PM Toni Pohl Using SharePoint Online (SPO) and Azure Logic Apps helps to automate processes. For a project, we have created some workflows with Azure Logic Apps that monitor changes to an SPO list or document library for approvals and other document workflows. We have found that the SPO connector does not always send all data in a reproducible manner: sometimes some fields were sent and sometimes not.
