    HI @DiegoFM 

     

    This is a bit of a workaround but it works all the time. Since there's no decent way to rename files I copy them with the new name and delete the old files.

     

    Here's the Power Automation:

    Take care of special characters in the path by using this formula:

    replace(replace(replace(variables('DESTINATION_FOLDER'), '/', '%252f'), ' ', '%2b'), '&', '%26')

     

    Is this what you need?
