Get File Content Processing Error

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by jmprado 19

I have been trying to troubleshoot this flow for the last couple days but am not succeeding. 

This flow is to Combine selected files based on the folder the files are located in (Order Number) + IncludeDoc checked Yes.

I have my IncludeDoc column formatted as a checkbox and also am able to Trigger the flow from a different column called FlowMerge.

The checkboxes and FlowMerge buttons are working fine but, when I run my flow, the Get File Content is coming back as Null.

Looking for a fresh set of eyes to tell me what the issue is. Thanks for your help in advance! I appreciate this community as I've learned so much from everyone!

    I solved my own issue but figured I'd add the solution here. The new IncludeDoc column needed to be Indexed via the Sharepoint Settings > Indexed Columns > Create a New Index option.
