Hello,

But my problem is when a download a file it copies to my download area (my user). But how i can publish on the server ? does it still need my PC ? if not does the flow know where is the download area ?

Can anyone help me in this ? How can i implement something like this ?

Hi,
please have a look at the premium actions under ‚Sharepoint‘. There you will find all activities that you need to upload the file to your sharepoint.

i've managed to implement the flow of saving the email to the sharepoint folder, but i've a problem.
i've to save 2 emails in separated diretories based on the subject. for ex:
subject 1 : savings clients
subect 2 : savings clients with clientNumber

but the flow cant distinguish the first name from the second, and i was trying to count the number of characters to separate the 2 flows. is there a way to do this ?

thank you,

What kind of variables are you currently using for this comparison?
Perhaps this post can help you.

because of the 2 emails have the same beggining, in trying to check if the message has less than 30 characters.

This is a cloud flow, so you are in the wrong forum, actually.

Anyway, you seem to have an idea of how to do it. What exactly doesn't work as expected?

Can you show the expanded view of the Create file action? What values are you passing into it?
Also, can you view the flow run and check if it actually gets to the Create file action? I.e. does it pass the condition check?
