Convert File action (HTML file to PDF) suddenly not working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4
Hi all,

I am bit puzzled about the sudden failure of my flow to convert an HTML file to PDF. It was working fine all along but yesterday it just started creating blank PDF pages. Nothing has changed in my flow. I have tested this part of the flow with other HTML files and even older ones that worked fine before and the conversion action keeps just spitting out blank PDFs. I am using the OneDrive for business connector as it is included and free. 
Has something changed that I am not aware of?

Here is the flow...it's just very simple.

Any help is appreciated..

Regards,
Gerhard

    I tried to reproduce your issue. But with some basic html code it works on my machine.
     
    Can you an example of the html you are using in the new 1.html for example?

    If it helps, below is my repro setup.
     
    <html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
    Hello World!
    </body>
    </html>
     
     


    Test result

    Hello @Expiscornovus,
    Thanks for your reply. 
    I could not really figure out what went wrong initially, I tried several things but nothing worked. Turns out it must have been a service outage of the OneDrive for Business function or something as after waiting a day everything went back to normal.

    I was reading somewhere that these things can happen for the built-in actions..
     
    So until now all been OK again.
     
    Regards,
    Gerhard
