List not found when using Dynamic Content to create new Folder

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 4

Hello,

i designed a flow which creates a new channel in a team based on a form.

After that i use "File System" to get files from our local fileserver.

 

This is where my problem starts: i need to access the new library created at the start and create new folders with the use of dynamic content. As seen in the screenshot i get an error "list not found" but with the function "Get folder metadata" i can access the library.

 

I tried a lot of different settings for the input "List and Library".

It works when i type in the site adress directly and choosing the Library from the Dropdown instead of dynamic values. But i need them for this flow. Otherwise i need to create 75 copies of that flow..

 

Thanks for your help!

    When using file identifiers or paths as variables you need to put EncodeUriComponent() around the variable to account for spaces and special characters.

    Thanks four your answer.

    I already use that in the screenshot. When i use "Get folder metadata" i get the correct output but when using "Create new folder" it says "list not found".

    You used it on the list, but not on the Folder path itself.  Since the folder path has a space in it you need to use it in both places.

    Ok, i tried but i cant get the content "Name" from "List files in folder" which is necessary for naming the folders.

    I just can add "body" from it.
