Hi ! I used the "List folder" action in Power Automate to retrieve all images from a SharePoint folder. Now, I want to fetch each image individually using the "Get File Content" action for further processing.

To do this, I'd like to know how to use indexes to dynamically select a specific file from the list based on its position (index). How can I use indexes in my flow to achieve this? Any guidance would be appreciated!

How to Use Indexes to Select Files in Power Automate from a SharePoint Folder?

I found a solution using a combination of the "first" and "skip" functions.

To get the first element of the list:
first(body('action_name'))?['Id']

To get the nth element of the list:
first(skip(body('action_name'), n-1))?['Id']
