Hi @neiva_SOUcloud,

You can use a Get files (properties only) action and only filter for files via the FSObjType property (0 is for files, 1 is for folders. This way you can find the files. That filter would be:

FSObjType eq 0

For the blob part have a look at this thread where I proposed a similar solution approach:

https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Moving-a-SharePoint-Folder-file-structure-to-Azure-Blob-Storage/m-p/2578736

As demonstrated in that approach your folders paths will be created via the blob name. So, that's why it is sufficient to only retrieve files in your get files (saves a lot of loops in the apply to each).

1. The Blob Name field contains the Folder Path and File Name with Extension fields

2. The blob gets successfully created in the container selected in the Folder path

3. The folders within the container also get created
