I am copying the file from the one sharepoint library to another. For a certain library in the sharepoint, i am repeatedly getting this error
The file is getting copied to the destination folder, but this error repeatedly comes up and fails the flow. Please let me know if there any solution for this issue.
Hi @StretchFredrik ,
The file is getting copied. And also renamed using send http request. The main issue can be with this SharePoint site as well. As I have a similar flow which is working fine in another SharePoint site.
If you check the list you copy to, can you see the file? Is there any mandatory metadata missing?
It is first copying the file and with get file properties and send http request, I am renaming the said file. The weird thing is the file is getting copied correctly and renamed also. But just the issue that I have is that flow is getting failed repeatedly just due to the issue of item not found.
Hi @fchopo ,
I am first copying the file to the folder, and then with get file properties and send http request, I am renaming the said file. The ids are correct only, I have checked them multiple times. The weird thing is the file is getting copied correctly and renamed also. But just the issue that I have is that flow is getting failed repeatedly just due to the issue of item not found.
Does it have to do with certain issues in the SharePoint site as well? As similar flow is working fine in another SharePoint site.
Hi @manit
I replicated your workflow on my test environment and worked like a charm with 32 items:
Could you check you're using right fields (ids) ? By the way, what are you doing in the HTTP Action below (maybe you lock or delete the file!).
Hope that helps!

Hi @manit
After copying the file add a "delay" action for 1 minute or so, as it can take some time to copy a file from one SharePoint site to another. After that, you can try getting file properties.
Hope that helps!

Is the file checked out maybe because its lacking some mandatory data and therefor power automate believes it doesnt exist maybe?
