OneDrive for Business upload file from url return 403 forbidden error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 304

Hello,

 

I'm trying to create a simple prototype of a flow where I have a SPO list and in every entry of that I attach a file, then I try to retrieve it with "Upload file from URL" to copy in OneDrive fro Business folder but when I execute it I obtain a 403 - Forbidden error.

 

The flow is this:

 

flow upload file from url 1.png

 

and this is the error retrieved:

 

flow upload file from url 2.png

 

For OD4B I used a user that has a permission to access that folder (the user is the owner of the OD4B account); I also used the same user to retrieve data from SPO List and "SharePoint Get Attachments" connectors but without success.

Any explanation?

Regards

    Hi @mmangiante,

     

    Do you want to save SharePoint list attachments to OneDrive for Business folder?

    Instead of using the action Upload file from URL, please try to use the action Create file.

    I have made the following flow, please check it for reference. The list attachments could be saved to OneDrive for Business folder successfully.

    Hello @v-yamao-msft

     

    I tried with Upload file from URL because I'd like to use the attachment with Excel and do some operation with it and don't want to create a "support" file in the meantime; your solution I understand is the suggested solution.

    It is great that you went a different way, but I have the same issue you had before, however I need to use the "Upload file from URL" and understand why I am getting a 403 Forbidden.
