Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

I tried multiple options in power automate, but couldn't find the solution.

Problem statement is as follows:

1. Copy the file content either modified or newly created to Local machine or server

2. Is it possible without gateway [Can't install in office PC]

3. I want to run this every day at specified time ex: 10:30

Highly appreciated if anyone can provide the solution

Power Automate Desktop

Hi @srinubobby007

please clarify you want to do it in the Power automate cloud or Power automate desktop?

As per your scenario you can do it in Power automate cloud

1. Trigger: when a file is created or modified in sharepoint or onedrive.

2. Add a condition to check if the file was modified or created within the last 24 hours (or within a timeframe relevant to your use case).

3. If the condition is met (i.e., the file was modified or created within the specified timeframe), use actions like "Get file content" to retrieve the content of the file.

4. After retrieving the file content, you can then use actions like "Create file" or "Copy file" to save the content to a local machine or server. Depending on your requirements, you may need to use different connectors or custom actions to save the content to your desired location.

5. configure the flow to run at your specified time (e.g., 10:30 AM daily). You can do this by setting up a recurrence trigger or using the "Delay until" action to wait until the specified time before executing the flow.

please let me know if this is your requirement or not,

Best Regards,

Usha
