Hey guys
Do you know if POWER AUTOMATE can rename a file that was renamed by it before, this in a programmed "looping"? I want every Thursday Power Automate to copy the file to the Folder (History), then rename the file in its previous folder to the current date.

in short: -
Stream scheduled for Thursdays;
- Copy the File "Teste_26_08_2021" in the Folder "HISTORICO";
- Rename the file "Test_26_08_2021" to "Test_27_08_2021" (to the current date) in the current folder;

 

in short: -
Fluxo agendado para as quintas-feiras;
-Copie o Arquivo "Teste_26_08_2021" na Pasta "HISTORICO";
- Renomeie o arquivo "Test_26_08_2021" para "Test_27_08_2021" na pasta atual;

========================================================== =========================

    Hi @matiellu2021 

    According to your description, you want to create a new file with the current date in the file name based on the old file and move the old file to the specified folder every week.

    I set up a flow you can refer to and see if it helps.

    This is my library:

    Flow in details:

    After Flow runs, the new file will be created in Test1 Folder and the old file will be moved to HISTORICO folder.
