Trouble with flow - Copy files

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4

I am facing issue to develop flow where I want to copy all files that contains text "ABCD" in file name from a sharepoint library - (arranged in multiple folders/subfolders) to another sharepoint folder.

There are more than 10000 files to be checked for above condition and approx 1000 files that match above criteria for file name

    Unfortunately flow is failed as there was "Access Denied" for "List folder"

    The error message seems like target to a connection issue.

    If you confirm you have privilege to access those folders, try to create a new connection, remove the action and add a new one for a try.

    No. Stil I am getting the similar error message of "Access Denied". I am able to copy files from sharepoint folder, but getting this error message while running this flow. Is it possible that I have access to subfolder of a shrepoint library and when we run the flow to "List folder", it returns "Access Denied" error?

    It shouldn't actually.

    Maybe you can try to create a new connection for this connector and use this new connection for "List folder". Furthermore, you can remove the action and add a new one to see whether helps.

     

    If none of above is with luck, think you may need to raise a ticket to Microsoft for accurate troubleshooting steps:
