    Hello @Amar-Azure-Practice , As Mike mentioned, unfortunately the trigger is not available and there is already a request raised for this feature. Request you to please upvote the existing UserVoice item.

    However, there are couple of approach to achieve this:

    1. You can use the recurrence trigger in logic app to poll and check for new files/folders https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/logic-apps/logic-apps-examples-and-scenarios#common-starting-points-for-logic-app-workflows and based on the conditional requirement you can then design your workflow.
    2. You can consider a continuous webjob to poll the required REST API endpoint and check for new items. Based on the result you can proceed to the next step.
    3. You may also consider the Durable function Monitor to poll until a particular condition is met.

    Please let me know whether this helps.
    If yes , please "Accept the answer" and "Up-vote" so that it helps others in the community.
