Append file when uploading file with same name

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi,

I have created an app that allows user to upload a specific file to onedrive location. While uploading i only want to append new records to the existing file without actually replacing the old file. I have created a power automate flow that uploads the attached file to onedrive. My only problem is instead of replacing the original file it should append records in the same file.

Any help is much appreciated.

Regards,

Priyanga

its a very simple flow. so every time user uploads the file, it should actually append the data to the already existing file.

@Anonymous First you should get file content then use update file action.

@Anonymous This is only for your understanding. I did not run this but created for your understanding. here i am adding utcnow() in the file content.

You need to do something like this.
