Copying uploaded Form document to new folder

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello

I'm not a developer so simple explanation please (if possible!)

I have a group form which I created in a Team, and the form has a question which allows for documents to be uploaded.

Using PowerAutomate I want to copy each uploaded document to a different folder within the Teams SharePoint site, however my steps keep failing when trying to get the file metadata with the message 'Route did not match'.

The steps I use are

1) When a new response is submitted

2) Get Response Details

3) Condition Control - Does upload question in response details contain data

4)  Parse json from upload question

5) Get metadata using one of the json fields as File Identifier.

Below are the available json outputs.

            "name",

            "link",

            "id",

            "type",

            "size",

            "referenceId",

            "driveId",

            "status",

            "uploadSessionUrl"

 

thank you!

Laurence

    Hi
     
    I would need to see the real flow. What you have wont work. You dont need a file identifier.
     
    You simply use the incoming File that was uploaded to grab the Bits, then use a Create File action.
    You would look through them of course to do them all, and how you figure out the name and folder it does too is different.
     
    But logically, its a simple case of
     
    Loop through JSON(uploadformquestion)
    Use Create File, pass it the bits from the currentItem of the apply to each/loop
     
    Also, its always good to not just show the flow, but show the Run that failed, with the inputs and outputs so we can help more.
