In another approach, you can use managed metadata column in document libraries and lists. | |
| Dec 1, 2019 at 14:33 | comment | added | Abbas | Hi Dikesh, thanks for your attention. Basically the lists have to be created before the document has been uploaded. Let me clarify better. I go to the document library and inside the document library, I have a folder where I upload my files. Each file has to be linked to the list items where I have more than 30 lists. Basically I can do this using lookup column but lookup column works only for one list. However I have to choose from 6 different lists for one document library. I can create 6 different lookup columns but it is not the efficient way unfortunately. | |
| Dec 1, 2019 at 14:20 | comment | added | Dikesh Gandhi | which type of relationships you would like to maintain between the uploaded documents and list items in lists? Please provide more information on your requirement for better understandment. However, you can create Power Automate - flows on document libraries, so when document is uploaded in that folder you can create new list item in respected list and also set value in lookup column based on uploaded document's ID from document library. | |
