Create File in Sharepoint - not copying latest version of the file!

Posted on by emannari

I have several flows that each populate different excel tables and save a copy of them on sharepoint.

Each flow queries an SQL database, iterates over the table and adds these rows to an existing excel table on Sharepoint using "Add a row into a table". Then the Sharepoint step "Get file content" and "Create file" are used to copy the first excel file to a new location.

Initially I ran into some trouble where the file would get copied without all the data saved - the "Add a row into a table" would show 40 rows added to the table but the new copied file would only list 30 or so. So I added a "Delay" step of 30 seconds.

However, I'm now running into the same issue and increasing the delay doesn't help. Sometimes all of the rows in the excel file will correctly copy over, sometimes only a handful, and sometimes none! This has happened on several flows and I can't figure out what to do. I've verified only one instance of the flow is running on each excel file at a time. Help!

Hi @emannari ，

I suggest that you could delay for a longer time such as 5 minutes to see if the issue still exists.
