Error in creating a power automate flow in power apps.

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 21

I am trying to create a Power Automate flow in Power Apps which will allow a file to be sent to a Sharepoint Library.

 

While creating the flow, having chosen the operation as Sharepoint Create File, I am running into problems selecting the folder path. I have attached a screenshot of the error message that I'm getting, as well as of the screen which has an image control and an attachment control.

 

Can you please advise why this is happening? This is all in my personal environment, not production.

 

Many thanks for your help.

    Hi @KD919 

     

    The error it gives you indicates that you do not have access to the repository you are trying to access. You can check what type of permissions you have in Sharepoint and then try to access again.

    Do another simpler test
    Create a manual execution flow and try to access that repository and check if it still gives you the same error and you will know that it is a Sharepoint permissions issue

    Hi @Jmanriquerios thanks for your help. Yes, it does appear that I don't have the requisite permissions in SharePoint.

    Thanks again.

    Hi @Jmanriquerios I was able to find a sharepoint site which does allow access and writing permissions. As a result I have been able to create a flow now which works.
