FTP - Get File Content Action Not Working

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi All,

 

I'm trying to create a Flow that grabs a newly created zip file from an FTP server then uploads it to a Sharepoint site. 

 

But there's a problem when using the 'Get file content' FTP action. Below is how I created the FTP part of the flow:

The FTP connection is already set on Binary Transfer, it also manages to grab the details of the new zip file added.

 

But for some reason the 'Get file content' fails even though the input is set to 'ID' of the FTP file based on the documentation. 

 

Below is the run history of the flow, you can see the File ID input from the step before:

Any help is appreciated, thank you.

    Hi all,
