Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hi:

I'm trying to rename multiple uploaded files (from Microsoft Forms) using fields from the form. I was able to rename one file from an uploaded form using directions from this community form: Automating "File Upload" Filename in Microsoft Forms. Now I'd like to be able to rename multiple uploads, from the same form, using this flow. I've created my form to allow for a maximum of two files uploaded per upload and a total of six upload sections.

Currently, when two files are uploaded (on one form upload) the first uploaded file is duplicated twice and the second one doesn't appear. I also tried to duplicate the same steps for another upload question (in a different section of the form - different question) and it again only uploads the first file uploaded and says "Failed" for the second.

Can anyone please assist me with this?

Here's what I've done so far (again thanks to the answer provided in the above post)

When a new response is submitted (trigger)

Get Response Details

Parse JSON

Content - Dynamic content (label of the question with the uploaded file I want to rename)

Schema -

{

"type": "array",

"items": {

"type": "object",

"properties": {

"name": {

"type": "string"

"link": {

"type": "string"

"id": {

"type": "string"

"type": {},

"size": {

"type": "integer"

"referenceId": {

"type": "string"

"driveId": {

"type": "string"

"status": {

"type": "integer"

"uploadSessionUrl": {}

"required": [

"name",

"link",

"id",

"type",

"size",

"referenceId",

"driveId",

"status",

"uploadSessionUrl"

]

}

Get file content using path

File Path - the file path location where my files are being auto-added along with the following Expression attached to the end of the file path: first(body('Parse_JSON'))?['name']

Apply to each

Select an output from precious steps - Dynamic content > Parse JSON > Body

Add an action

Create file

Folder Path - new folder path where I am saving the renamed files

File Name - Dynamic content (choose the form fields that will combine to become new name) and end with Dynamic content > Parse JSON > name

File Content - Dynamic Content > Get file content using path > File content

Again, any help would be appreciated!
