Create file action is stuck in my flow without any error message. I have already supplied file name and file content. Any help would be appreciated.

    HI @amahmood ,

     

    Add a "Compose" action to check the file content. The variable or content you're using for the file.
    Run the flow and check the output of the "Compose" action to ensure it contains the expected data.


    Temporarily replace the file content with simple text to see if the flow completes.

     

    Also in the settings for the "Create file" action, increase the timeout duration and ensure you have sufficient permissions to create files in the specified SharePoint library.

     

    Mark as solution if it helps. 

     

    Thanks,

    Sandeep Mishra
