Moving more than 100 files from Google Drive to Sharepoint

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 184

Hi there,

 

I need to move quite a few large batches of files (mostly photographs) from Google Drive to Sharepoint and since I'm working from home, my home internet upload speed isn't fast enough to download from Google Drive and upload to Sharepoint and it basically froze my computer.

 

I found this post which helped me build a flow to do it which works great, however, it is limited to 100 files per run. https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Google-Drive-to-Sharepoint/td-p/42665

 

I believe this is likely because Google Drive has a trottle limit of 100 API calls per 60 seconds.

 

My IT friend suggested i put a delay of 3 seconds after each API call which I attempted but didn't work and it still only copied across 100 files.  I think I might also have an issue with trying to use my do until loop which I developed for excel sheets so i was not limited to 256 lines

 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Here is my flow:

    Hi @PipManifold ,

     

    I see you has add 100 to the variable in the expression, could you please take a try with add 1 to the variable in the expression instead of 100?

    I tested changing the jump in my compose variable to 1 and sadly had the same result of only 100 files moving.

    Hi @PipManifold ,

     

    I'm afraid that the issue is caused by the 100 items list for the List files in folder action.
