How to copy & paste files from Box to Sharepoint?

I believe this is the only function to do this, but the dropdown menu options for src locations don't support what I want to do. Thanks for any advice.

    Thank you Alice--very helpful, but it only answers part of my question. 

    1). Box: Get file content using id => This requires an individual file src (but I want to reference the entire folder as I will constantly add new files to the folder that need to be copied into the linked Sharepoint workspace (folder). 

    2). Sharepoint: Create file ==> The required folder path references a file system structure that I don't have (I've also renamed the folders in my Sharepoint workspace). I also want to this workspace to be the container where I put all the 'copied & pasted' files from Box. 

     

    Any other functions provide this? Thank you.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    The image that you provided couldn't be opened.

    Could you please share a screenshot of the configuration of your flow?

    Do you want to copy the file from Box to Sharepoint when a file is created in the Box?

    If yes, You could create a flow with trigger "when a file is created" of Box connector, then add a "Get file content using id" action of  Box connector, and then add a "Create file" action of sharepoint connector.

     

    Best regards,

    Alice
