How to create/copy a file to a dynamic destination

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

What I want: 

  1. Folder is created in SharePoint
  2. If the folder meets a certain condition, then place a file into that folder

The trigger (#1) is fine, as is the condition. No problems there. 

But when it comes to getting the file into the folder, I'm running into problems.

I don't care if it creates a file or copies it from an existing destination, either solution would work for me (and I think the copy would be easier). 

But I run into issues at the DESTINATION FOLDER - it seems to only  allow me to list a static folder, but what I want is for it to place this document in the folder (or even a subfolder) that was created in #1. 

I'm not sure how to get around this, but feel like it should be possible.

    Hi @Anonymous :

    Do you want to copy the files to the folder you just created.

    I've made a test and it worked well on my side.I suggest that using 'Full Path' instead of 'Folder path'.
