OneDrive file events for Microsoft 365 teams

OneDrive is Microsoft 365's file storage layer, the OneDrive-for-Business backbone of every M365 tenant. Two triggers cover the events worth automating: File Created (a new file lands in a folder you've scoped) and File Updated (existing file changes). Seven actions cover the file lifecycle: Get File Metadata, List Files, Search Files, Copy File, Create Folder, Delete File, Create Sharing Link (with the same audience controls as the OneDrive web UI, anyone with link, specific people, members of your org). The integration authorizes via Microsoft Graph OAuth, scoped to the user's OneDrive plus any shared libraries they have access to. Common patterns: a File Created in a regulated-content folder fires a workflow that runs DLP classification with an AI step, applies the right sensitivity label, and routes to the compliance team in Teams; or a Notion attachment auto-mirrors to OneDrive via Copy File for archival in the corporate IT-managed file store.

Triggers

Workflows start when Microsoft OneDrive does.

2 real-time triggers, each backed by a webhook subscription. Events arrive within seconds and you don't have to set up polling.

Real-time · webhook-driven
Actions

Do anything Microsoft OneDrive can do, from a workflow.

Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's an AI output, a form field, or a search result.

ActionWhat it does
Copy OneDrive FileCopies a file to a different folder, optionally renaming. For "template-based document creation" — copy the template Doc/Excel/PPT to a new location with workflow-supplied name.
Create OneDrive FolderCreates a folder at a specified parent path. For client-onboarding workflows that auto-provision folder structures.
Create OneDrive Sharing LinkGenerates a shareable URL with configurable scope (view/edit) and audience (anonymous/organisation/specific people). For "send the file to a customer" workflows.
Delete OneDrive FileRemoves a file (soft-deletes to Recycle Bin in most accounts). For cleanup workflows after processing or for "outdated content cleanup" maintenance.
Get OneDrive File MetadataReturns file metadata — size, MIME, parent path, last modified, sharing status. Use when you need file context without downloading.
List OneDrive FilesReturns files and sub-folders in a specific folder. For batch-processing workflows or for inventorying folder contents.
Search OneDrive FilesFull-text and metadata search across files the user can see. For "find contracts mentioning X" or "all files modified by Y this week" workflows.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Microsoft OneDrive once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Microsoft OneDrive field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Microsoft OneDrive integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Microsoft OneDrive to Tiny Command?
Open the Tiny Command workflow builder, drop in a Microsoft OneDrive node, and click Connect. Authorize Microsoft OneDrive once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.
What Microsoft OneDrive triggers does Tiny Command support?
Tiny Command supports 2 real-time Microsoft OneDrive triggers, including "OneDrive File Created", "OneDrive File Updated". Each trigger fires within seconds of the event happening in Microsoft OneDrive.
What Microsoft OneDrive actions can I run from a workflow?
7 Microsoft OneDrive actions are available out of the box, covering other operations like "Copy OneDrive File". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.
Is the Microsoft OneDrive integration real-time?
Yes. OneDrive File Created and every other Microsoft OneDrive trigger uses webhooks or push subscriptions, so workflows fire within seconds of the event in Microsoft OneDrive rather than on a polling schedule.
Do I need to write code to use Microsoft OneDrive with Tiny Command?
No. Every Microsoft OneDrive trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Microsoft OneDrive API endpoint directly.
How much does the Microsoft OneDrive integration cost?
There's a free tier you can start on without a credit card. Higher run volumes and team features come with paid plans. The Microsoft OneDrive integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
