'NotFound' error when using Convert file

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

The convert file step I used here gives a 'NotFound' error, with Id passed as input.

However, earlier within the same flow, I tried using the same Id to get file content and there is no error, which should mean the file of the specified Id does exist.

For reference, the file Id input is from a previous Create file step:

which does not have any errors either and produces the correct file in the /Documents folder.

These are the error details:
Error from Office Service. Url=https://wordcs.officeapps.live.com/document/export/pdf HttpCode=NotFound cert=subject:;thumbprint: ResponseHeaders=Connection: close

How can I fix this?

    Hi , @Aravind6 

    Can you try to test if you create a new flow to convert this file can work successfully?

    If this , you can try to add a "Delay" action after your "Create file" action.

    I tried to retrieve the file using the get file content step directly after creating the file, and the next step I added is the file conversion step (with the same Id). So the file is shown to be retrievable, if I am not mistaken. Can I please ask why adding a delay is recommended?

    This is what my flow looks like, I perform 'Create file' in OneDrive using file content (contentBytes) and file name (name) from the PowerApps trigger file input --> use Id from the create file step as input to the next 2 'Get file content' and 'Convert file' steps. Not sure where I made the mistake.

    Hi , @Aravind6 

    Thanks for your response! Your flow seems that have no issue. Can you check if you select the same connection of your action:

    If this can not help you , can you also try to re-create the flow in the classic mode ?

    Tried it in classic mode, still fails at the convert step. All previous steps including file creation and get file content don't have issues.

    Hi @Aravind6,

     

    I've also just started getting this issue from today.

    On a flow that has been operating without issue for many months.

    We have this problem too!

     

    Been working fine up until today. Tried recreating in simpler flows and still NotFound.

     

    Hoping it gets sorted soon.
