Flow to Overwrite/Save file has stopped working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 86

Good morning,

 

I have a flow that I wrote that worked fine for about a week then all of a sudden has stopped. The flow still runs and says successful, but does not perform the task as it did before.  

 

The flow is automatically activated when an email is received with an attachment of a certain name, it then is supposed to overwrite a file in onedrive with the attachment file. The file name has not change on either the attachment or one drive. See flow below and flow results.  It is finding the email because it's executing the move file action at the end. 

 

Thanks for any help.

    Good morning,  

     

    I used a slight variation on what you suggested but you definitely led me down the right path. 

     

    Thank you.

    Thank you for the suggestion,

     

    It's an excel file in the attachment and I'm just looking to overwrite the old file with the new.

    Hi @ToddVH 

    Could you please tell me:

    Do you want to update the content of the file in OneDrive based on the content of the attachment?
    I suggest you add Get Attachment (V2) and use the dynamic content Content Bytes returned by Get Attachment (V2).
