Hello,

I would like to create a flow to delete all .lnk filetype files from a SharePoint folder.

This is what I've made so far, but it doesn't work:

Many Thanks.

Hi @sw9 ,

Could you check the File Identifier in Delete File connector? Here is a sample flow.

@Kaif_Siddique, thanks, this was previously set to ID rather than Identifier.

However, I have changed this as below and it still doesn't delete the files

Would appreciate any suggestions how to fix this
