Power Automate - creating a new file

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi all,

 

Hopefully someone can help.

 

The flow I have should do the following.

 

  • It updates a file (a python script) in a folder in sharepoint.
  • It copies the file above (in a temp folder) into a new folder.
  • It gets the file content of the file that has been copied
  • It creates a brand new file in a different folder (with a different name for archiving purposes).

The error I am getting is below. This fails on the "Create File" for Sharepoint option.

 

File Not Found
clientRequestId: 4f306326-6c03-472b-a6e3-d62369fbe374
serviceRequestId: 4f306326-6c03-472b-a6e3-d62369fbe374

 

This should be creating a new file, and not sure why it can't find a file when it should be creating it.

 

Also having a look at the error the file content is coming in as Base64 so not sure if that is causing an issue?
