Powerautomate cannot connect to sharepoint

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 6
Powerautomate cannot connect to sharepoint. When the homemade flow calls the sharepoint information, it prompts that I need to log in. However, when I check the connection information, it shows that I have logged in. I have tried many times but failed. The flow can not run automatically (the previous flow could run successfully for almost half a year)。
I have tried to clear the history and log in again, change the account password, or delete the SharePoint-related link of the flow on powerautomate and re-establish it; all the above methods failed, and the prompt required me to log in to SharePoint (even though I was already logged in). I would like to ask if there is a good solution.

    Hi
     
    Are you using a Connection or a Connection Reference?
     
    Have you checked the Connection (if you are using that), under Connections at the Home Screen (or Power Automate, or Power Apps) to validate its good.
     
    That or I would create a whole new connection or connection reference and stop using that one as it seems bugged

    I deleted the connection and re-created it, but it didn't work.

    Hi,
     
    Are you able to select all required parameters for the action "Send an HTTP request to Sharepoint". Check once if site address and other details are valid. Try adding a duplicate action for the same and see if you are able to provide required values in the input parameter fields.
     
    BR,

    Have you checked that you have the necessary permissions on the SharePoint site you are trying to post the HTTP request? If you do have access, do you have the required permissions to perform the action in your HTTP request? If you have checked both of those things, then I would suggest sharing how you have the HTTP request configured and blur the URL to your site. Generally, I ask for owner permissions on any sites I am writing workflows for and have not encountered any issues.
