Sharepoint Sites Missing from Dropdown

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 47

I have a few of my Sharepoint sites that do not show up in flow when I have tried to do a number of flows involving them therefore I am not able to select a folder in those sites to create files in a flow.  About half of the sharepoint sites exist in the dropdown list.

 

I am attempting to create some simple flows such as saving email attachments and syncing 2 sharepoint folders.  

 

I have also attempted to use 'add custom value' and paste the link to the site in but that fails in validation when saving the flow.

 

I cannot find other solutions to this so far in the community.

 

Is there a setting somewhere that is affecting this?  These are templated flows and are quite simple.  Any help appreciated.

    It worked for me !

     

    Not a very permanent fix, but it'll help you move on.

     

    Save your flow as a new one and then try using the site url in the dropdown (Enter custom value).

     

    Hope it helps.

    I am having the same problem.  There are no special characters in the URL.

    Can you provicde some insite on how you solved this? I am using a different user / connection to do the Sharepoint update item and while this user can access said SP site using the browser URL when entering manually into a Flow it doesnt validate when saving.  The link you pointed to only discusses about manually entering the SP site URL to avoid any weird characters but this doesnt appear to have worked.

     

    Thanks,

    I got some help on this issue.  Some sites won't show but I also couldn't type in the name of the site at that time (which should work) because i had some punctuation issues.  See the link for the solution I found.

    I'll visit Upwork.com.  Thank you jsia.  I couldn't copy/paste because that's not an option for me.   I see two choices "No Items" and "Enter custom value" in my drop-down menu.  I choose "Enter custom value " and I still can't type the SharePoint site address.

    I found copy/pasting from the share point site itself was the best.  

     

    I found some very good and affordable help for troubleshooting this stuff on Upwork.com.

    I have similar issue.  The drop down does not show the site and the site link does not have any special characters.  I am in Office 365 A1 Plus and have access to Microsoft Forms (Plan2 ) and SharePoint Plan 1 for EDU as an admin.

    First I created an Office 365 Form and collected 1st set of data.  Then I created a Sharepoint list store the Form results.  Now I am trying to create a flow, and I can't find the SharePoint site.  I can't type it either.

    Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
