List files in folder

Posted on by JO-18051613-0 2
One of our Power Automate flows has been working for months and months on end with no issues has now started failing with:
Flow run failed. Action 'List_files_in_folder' failed: The API
'onedriveforbusiness' returned an invalid response for workflow
operation 'List_files_in_folder' of type 'OpenApiConnection'. Error
details: 'The API operation 'ListFolderV2' requires the property 'body'
to be of type 'Object' but is of type 'Array'.'
 
This started on Saturday, May 16th, 2026 and has been failing since then.
 
Any word on Microsoft patching this or are there any workarounds anyone knows of?
 
Stems from these PA actions for the OneDrive connector: Get file metadata using path -> List files in folder
 
Or it does in my particular flow anyways.

    I haven't encountered any issues. I created a brand-new flow to see if I could reproduce the error and cannot. To help others viewing this topic who may be able to help you, can you confirm these are the actions you are using in your flow and they are in a similar order:
     
    I tested it on a folder that contained one file and multiple files, and both worked without an issue.

    Seems to be working for now. Not sure if Microsoft just woke up and patched it what but no complaints from me for now. Thanks for responding.
