Download files from FTP to a UNC path

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello all,

I have build a flow in PAD that downloads files from ftp into a unc path (\\server\folder1\folder2\folder3).
I have also build a Power Automate flow that runs that flow in unattended mode every 15 minutes.
When i run the flow localy in the server it works fine. It downloads the files and saves them in the unc path. But when the flow is executed from the Power Automate flow, I get the error "Problem while executing action 'DownloadFiles'. Local folder: \\server\folder1\folder2\folder3 doesn't exist."

 

Thanks
