I'm trying to get a first step connection working with Flow using the File System.
- I created a top-level folder on my local machine (c:\testfolder) and dropped a couple of files into it.
- I created a connection called "local-test".
- For Root folder, I used \\mymachine\testfolder. I assume that my machine can be accessed through the company gateway.
- For Authentication type, I used Windows.
- For Username, I entered my domain\username. I have also tried the format username@domain.
- For Gateway, I used a gateway that I have successfully used from PowerApps, though I was connecting to SQL, not my local machine.
It seems that an error flashed (too quickly to read). When I go back in, it didn't save the username.
The result is that, when trying to select a folder in File System in an Instand Flow for "List files in folder", I get "Error executing the api". I expect I set up the connection incorrectly, or the Gateway was set up incorrectly.
getting same error in azure file storge via Logic apps ,when selecting directory for creating files please help?
Thank you. I had listed the domain incorrectly in the connection.
Hi @akharns ,
Yes, I afraid that there is any wrong for the connection or Gateway, please check the connection and Gateway.
Best regards,
Alice
