Workflow to copy item in SP

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 77

I have created a form that will be published in a public site (form library) and when submitted will be saved/stored in a private site (form library).

 

At the moment I am having issues as users cannot submit the form as it's writing back to a private site that they don't have permission to (please note that we do not want to give them permission to this).

 

As a workaround I thought maybe the user could submit the form to the public site (form library) and then have the following workflow occur: Item created > Copy to private library > delete file from public library.

 

I run into issues however as it says it's Failed to verify the existence of source object at ....

 

I've tried the following dynamic content options:  Id, Name, File name with extension, Full Path, Link to item

 

The link to item seems like it would work however, when I use that dynamic content it duplicates the original location is the URL (e.g. https://www.sharepoint.com/site/https://www.sharepoint.com/site/file-extension.xml

 

Is there a way to not duplicate the URL so that it can locate the file?

    Please ignore - I discovered that I was using the wrong dynamic content.

     

    I had been trying with 'Id' when I should have been using 'Identifier'.

     

    Strange thing however the flow works when I use 'Copy File' but if I do the exact same using 'Move file' the flow fails.
