Copy files with folder structure from SharePoint library to OneDrive

Hello folks,

Currently, my flow is designed to export all files from a SP library to One Drive without folder structure.

If my library has 5 files within or outside sub-folders, this flow runs to bring all the 5 files to One Drive destination.

Now, because it does not create the sub-folders of SP library in One Drive- it does not copy sub-folders files in their respective sub-folders.

I am looking for copying the SP library onto One Drive by retaining the files within their folder structure. Can somebody help tweak this design wherein i get all the files but not within their sub-folders. Thanks

@CFernandes That doesn't help.
I am already getting files from sub-folders- the flow is working perfectly. I just want a way to create sub-folders and download their files in respective sub-folders on OneDrive.

By default- sub-folder items are returned as it is true by default
Thanks

@Anonymous OK. First and foremost, we spoke on a private message and as I told you I am away from laptop.

To be honest on my mobile device I could not see your screenshot and I know By default- sub-folder items are returned as it is true by default 🙂

I just created a quick Power Automate solution(Not tested it thoroughly), so give the below a try..

Hello @CFernandes
This worked perfectly. Thanks
Please bear with me and help with these queries below to help me understand why your solution worked
1) Your solution works if in CREATE FILE i use dynamic content "FOLDER PATH". Why doesn't it work when i want it to go to the OneDrive folder "AUTOMATE" as shown below
2) Also, in ISFOLDER = TRUE condition, it did not matter if i used TRUE from expression, like you did or if i typed TRUE as shown below. Kindly confirm if that's correct.

Thanks so much @CFernandes
