Posted on by Community Power Pla...

I am new to Power Automate. I am creating a flow to automate a process to pick files from the on-premises network using File System in Power Automate.

While 'When_a_file_is_created_(properties_only)' action I am getting the following error

Error:

The requested action could not be completed. Check your request parameters to make sure the path '//network_name/folder/sub_folder' exists on your file system. clientRequestId: 41d3c55c-9600-4b0f-a37f-09b0c803f16e

The sub_folder does exist on the network. However, I still get this error.

As a simple test, can you verify that the folder path is correct by running a List Files in Folder action:
