When File is created Error: The file id is not valid

Posted on by AlekE

A flow I am working on is triggered when a file is created in a specific folder in my OneDrive. When I start to test my flow it errors out and says "The file id '/SPList' is not valid.".

I selected the correct folder from the file explorer when creating the flow, I double checked the spelling of the folder, the folder path is directly from the file select built in to Power Automate.

I've tried everything i can think of and I can't figure out what is wrong. Any help is very appreciated.

Hi @AlekE ,

If you want to set the folder manually , you should input the folder's id

Otherwise, please consider selecting the folder in 'Show Picker'

Best Regards,

Bof

The trigger block I am using is not the SharePoint "When a file is created in a folder". Rather it it the OneDrive "When A file is created".

I am also using the folder picker to select the file.

Update: The problem has seemed to fix itself. I still don't know that the issue causing it to error out.
