Hello
I am getting occasional failures to my flow, caused by the Send a HTTP request to SharePoint connector
The flow is doing a lot of things, but what's happening here is that a folder is being copied from a template area, and then the HTTP request is renaming it
Delay had been set to 30 seconds, I've upped it to 75 now, hopefully that will improve it
Error is "NotFound"
Any advice appreciated
Hey @Expiscornovus
Thanks for making me realise I had been over thinking this.
I even went dumber and skipped the array. These folders are unlikely to change
Much Appreciated
Conn
Thanks @Expiscornovus
I'll give this a test this evening. At one point there were files in the folders, but they are now generated from a template and added in later
I hope this is more consistent than the HTTP requests (and the Copy Folder actually, I've had BadRequests there too)
Hi @ConnM,
Do you only want to create those 5 folders or are there also subfolders nested within any of those 5 folders?
You could for example try the below approach and see if that performs a bit better?
Yes, the folder contains subfolders. This is a process that has to be done a couple times a week, and is monotonous.
When I first started using flow, I had created folders, and then tried to create folders within that, and found the process very challenging then. I do believe this is the better option, but am welcome to hear other opinions

Hi @ConnM,
Out of interest, what is the reason you are copying a folder and renaming it afterwards and not just creating a new one instead?
Are you also copying metadata and/or files/subfolders within that folder?
I think I'll just have to learn how to do try/catch error handling in SP. This process is not absolutely critical to be fully automated, I'll just deal with the failures
