Update Google Drive File after Extracting Zip

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 12

Hi,

 

I'm having trouble creating flow in which a file is extracted from a .ZIP Folder and then an existing file in Google Drive is updated with that extracted file.

 

I'm looking for some guidance on how to create that final part, since I've successfully create the first two steps of the flow (Create a file and Extract to folder).

 

 

Thanks,

Filipa

    Hi @ChristianAbata , thanks for your reply. But I don't have an issue with the extraction. The file is extracted correctly. However I can't find a way to update an existing file with that extracted file.

     

    This is the flow.

    The first two actions work well but the third one doesn't.

    I have also tried "Get File content using ID" but I can't seem to make it work.

     

    Thanks,

    hi @filipa07 this is because you have added attachment name in the file content part, you need to add a propertie call content File.

     

    Please delete all you have in update file 2 file content field, and just search in dynamics content for propertie file content

    Hi @filipa07,

     

    File content field in Update file action should be content of the file to upload to Google Drive.

    Please follow these steps to update the CSV file by using the extracted file content:
