Unable to download a file from Dataverse in a Flow.

Posted on by 8
Hello,
 
I have a Power Automate Flow in which I want to take a csv file which has been uploaded into a table in Dataverse and then loop through it. I have a proof of concept which works in someone else's environment but when I use the exact same solution in my environment it returns this error on attempting to import the csv:
 
"Downloading in multiple chunks is not supported for the files stored in the database"

It works fine in the other environment so I'm a bit at a loss as to what is blocking me here. It's the same small csv, table, etc. I suspect it must be some sort of admin setting but I don't know what.
 
Has anyone seen this or has any ideas?
 
(Btw, I know this is a weird way to manage file storage, but for DLP/corporate bureaucracy reasons I can't use Sharepoint, Excel, Blob, etc...)
 
Thanks,
 
Kyle.

    Can you share the input of the download step in the Edit Mode?

    Hello Mira,

     

    This is the download step here. I simplified it as much as possible in debugging so it's just calling the row ID directly.

    The file itself is a very simple test file. It's just a CSV with a few lines. I had originally tried a much larger CSV but when it didn't work I made a simple file to make sure it wasn't the data. Same issue. I've shared screenshots here:

    Thanks,
