Posted on by andreer1

There is some way to copy files automatically hosted on the onedrive for bussiness that owns the flow (administrator) to a shared folder of another user.

that users can't sign on flow, we need something like a direct link to access the shared folder.

Only way to access a share drive would be using an on-premises data gateway. Details of what that needs can be found at

Filesystem actions allow you to select a gateway as a connection, click on the three dots to see the connections if it doesn't prompt you when you add the action.

Let me know how you get on

Hi @andreer1 ,

What do you mean by "that users can't sign on flow"?

In general, users do not need to log in to MS Flow to create a Flow, just use their corresponding account to create a connection.

For example, if you are copying files from OneDrive for Business to a local folder, you will need to use the configuration shown below:

The connection configured by action should use the username and password of the corresponding user.

Best Regards,
