error in file system

Posted on by

I have a PowerApp and I would like to view and write to the contents of a folder on my server under c: \ test. I have installed a local data gateway with working SQL and file connector. I tried to create a flow with the File System connection, but it gives me a connection error that I cannot understand. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Is the \test folder on the C: drive Shared?  and does the gateway connection account have permissions to the shared folder?  You can't use the gateway to attach directly to c:\test.  Its going to connect to a share in the form of \\computername\testsharename.
