I have a flow that creates a document in a library, however the document is unreadable and it it locked so it can't be deleted or renamed. Does anyone know how to release the lock. I am using Sharepoint online and all the posts I have reviewed about unlocking the file does not work. It's as if the flow hasn't released the document. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi @barlowse,
What’s your current situation? Is the file still locked in the library?
How is your flow created? Could you share a screenshot?
I made a test to create a file in SharePoint library using Flow, the file then can be opened without issues.
Per my research, it seems that the locked file might happen under the following conditions:
Please check whether you have any of the above conditions. I assume that the locked file will be unlocked sometime itself.
If you are still having the issue, please feel free post back.
Best regards,
Mabel Mao
