Currently, I have a flow that creates a folder with some files in SharePoint and then creates a task in Planner Premium. I want to know how I can make Power Automate add the link to the SharePoint folder in the task’s attachment field.

    Power Automate cannot directly “attach” a SharePoint folder to a Planner task, but it can add a link to the folder using a sharing link created in SharePoint.

    Use this pattern in the flow after creating the folder and files:

    1. Create a sharing link for the folder
      • Add the SharePoint action Create sharing link for a file or folder.
      • Point it to the document library and the folder that was just created.
      • Configure link type/scope as needed (for example, view-only vs. edit, and organization vs. anyone) as described under “Grant access using sharing links”.
      • This action returns a URL that can be used to access the folder.
    2. Write the link into the Planner task
      • When creating or updating the Planner (Premium) task, use the URL returned from Create sharing link for a file or folder in the appropriate field that stores links/attachments for the task (for example, a link/URL field supported by the Planner Premium connector).
      • The task will then surface that URL as the “attachment” entry (a clickable link to the SharePoint folder).

    Note: The SharePoint action Create sharing link for a file or folder only works with document libraries, not list items.
