Posted on by Koubie

Hi all,

I am trying to build an Instant Flow that will do the following:

It will get all files from an OneDrive folder and compare the file names to a text column in a SharePoint Online list. If it finds a match it should upload that file to the corresponding list item as an attachment.

I have managed to get all files and all list items. The flow times out when it starts comparing the file names to the text from the column.

My flow looks like this:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi @Koubie

Can you share more information about the execution, if you get any errors, or how it shows when the flow times out?

Best regards.

Hi Anthony,

Thank you for your post.

After posting I edited the flow trying to find another way to achieve what I wanted. Today after seeing your post I recreated the flow so that I could get the screenshot of the error message you wanted, and it works fine. No errors and it does what it is supposed to.

Best regards

Hi Koubi,

Please add before the get attachment get file content. inside the connector use the ID of the list files, in the attachment ensure to add the ID, file Name, and file Content properly.

for instance, the following

if that answers your inquiry, please don't forget to give a thumbs up. 🙂
