I need help building a PA flow to update a teams chat

I currently have a flow built that will take parts of a list entry and create a chat in teams.

Is there a way I can have that chat be updated if / when a column is updated?

Situation:

The list contains info from an email in which my team needs to reply to after collaborating on a response which is why we use the chat in teams.

We have a status column on the list - When that status is changed to "complete" I would love to update that chat somehow to indicate that its been complete so at a glance in the chat thread I can see that its been completed without navigating to the list.

Here is what we have been using so far.

Would I need a new flow to make this happen, or do I just add to this one?

Thanks in advance for your input!

    Hi Amy, if I understand your question, then I think you'll need a new flow, which is triggered only when an existing item in the selected SharePoint list is modified.

    Hope this helps

    Hi @Amy P

    PowerAutomate currently cannot modify messages in a channel. You can only send a new message to remind the user that the item has been modified.
