I am getting this error when I try to copy a file from one sharepoint folder to another.  I believe I have the permissions correct since I am the owner of the site, the file, the team and the flow.

 

Here is the sharepoint copy that is failing.

 

The error is 403 Forbidden

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    I am afraid that there is something wrong with the Destination File Path field in the Copy file action.

     

    Please take the following screenshot for a reference. It works fine on my side.
