Moving files between Document Libraries

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi

I'm trying to automate the process of moving files from one document library to another. I built the flow but get stuck when I reach the step where I need to move the file. I get the following error:

 

"Missing or mismatched field definition on the destination list for source field 'Customer_x0020_Name' type 'Text'. Source site template id 'TeamCollaborationSite', target site template id 'TeamCollaborationSite'. Total blocked root objects in this operation is [1].
clientRequestId: fdeee64c-9879-4570-8d00-c3826a60a55a
serviceRequestId: fdeee64c-9879-4570-8d00-c3826a60a55a "

 

What might be the problem? Also, any alternative way to achieve the same "moving the file from source library to destination?".

    Thanks

    I can do the copy without an issue, the thing is I need to remove the file from source library.

    So, how can I delete the source file after copy is complete?

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Use the Get file metadata Id for deleting the file. Please see below.
