How can I set page properties using Power Automate with HTTP Request JSON?

Question

I'd create a flow in the Power Automate where a new page will be created by an HTTP Request with JSON.

I can replace and set text into the new page via the JSON, but I don't know how I can set the page properties.

You want to set the page properties or SharePoint site properties? — Ganesh Sanap - MVP, Jun 15, 2021 at 13:53
In the page library I created own column as properties and assinged them as page properties to display them on my pages. — Christoph, Jun 16, 2021 at 12:57

You can update the page properties using Send an HTTP request to SharePoint action like:

Method: POST

Uri:

_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Site Pages')/items(1)

Headers:

Accept: application/json;odata=verbose
Content-Type: application/json;odata=verbose
If-Match: *
X-HTTP-Method: MERGE

Body:

{
    "__metadata": {"type":"SP.Data.SitePagesItem"},
    "Title": "Custom title set by flow"
}

Output:

You mean I should update my new created page in a next step and adding then the properties?

Yes, you can add one more action & perform update operation as given in my answer. Pass the item ID (in Uri) from dynamic data of previous action used to create a page.

Hi Ganesh, I tried with your example. But it isn't working. I can set the title but no more other properties. Do you know why?

Which properties are you trying to set? Are you getting any error (if yes, please post the error message)? Did you create custom columns? If Yes, did you add them to the all content types in "Site Pages" library?

Also, make sure you are using correct internal name of your columns in request body.
