    Create a Flow to Microsoft SharePoint

    2. Click on Connect Your Data to add your source(s).
    3. Click on Connect Your Data Destination to add the destination.

    5. Check the Data Preview to see if your configuration is correct.
    6. Name your flow and click on Create Flow to finish the setup.

    File Partitioning

    File partitioning splits large datasets into smaller, manageable partitions, based on criteria like date. This technique enhances data organization, query performance, and management by grouping subsets of data with shared attributes.

    During flow creation, you can:

    • Select one of the predefined file name patterns.
    • Define your own custom name to suit your partitioning needs.

    Example of a custom file name
    When creating a custom file name, use variations of the offered file names.

    For example, use a base file name and add a different date range pattern:

    xyz_{{1d1|Ymd}}

    Using this file name, Dataddo will create a new file named xyz every day, e.g. xyz_20xx0101, xyz_20xx0102 etc.
