Need Help – Microsoft Forms File Upload Not Saving Correctly in SharePoint

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi everyone! 😊

 

I could really use your help with an issue I’m facing in Power Automate.

I’m trying to build a flow where contractors can upload documents via Microsoft Forms, and those files should automatically be saved into a specific SharePoint folder.Everything works fine except the final step: when I try to save the uploaded file, Power Automate treats it as text instead of a real file. No matter how I configure the "File Content" field, it keeps switching to "Text", and the file doesn’t get saved properly. Has anyone run into this problem before?

👉 Do you know why this might happen – and how to fix it?

👉 Are there any example flows or templates that could help?

👉 Ideally, I’d also like to send a confirmation email to the project owner once the document is saved.

I’d really appreciate any tips, links, or guidance you could share! 🙏

Thanks a lot in advance!

Best wishes 

Natalia

    Please share a screen shot of the flow and the configuration of the actions. Only by seeing what you're doing can we know what needs to be adjusted.
