I need to choose File content for dynamic content in forms below.  Not an option.  I thought if I created a sharepoint file, that would show up here.  What am I doing wrong?

    Hi @bschmidt ,

     

    You have to put the file content of the form - e.g. a word/excel document, a PDF, etc.

    Hi @bschmidt ,

     

    Do you want to select dynamic content for the file content in the form?

     

    You could get the files needed in SharePoint in the flow, and then in the "Extract information from forms" action, the dynamic content will be displayed to select the file content. I have test for your reference, please try the following workaround:
