Hi, @hrhassan

According to your description, when you directly select the file in "Get file using path" , the flow run successfully.

But when you use dynamic content , the file can not be found.

Can you check if you pass the same file path in your flow run history in two conditions.

I inniated a variable and pass it to Jason to get file name

So I used the path and added the variable name to dynamically get the file name from the http request I sent to SharePoint

Hi , @hrhassan

Thanks for your quick response! When you directly select by the icon, What is the path to the file that appears:

And can you check what's the value of your [ImageName] variable return in your flow run history?

Hi , @hrhassan

In my test, this should pass in the same path as if you had manually selected:

Folder/SubFolder/fileName.fileextension

So when you manually select the file here , dose the file path is the same with it?

Hi , @hrhassan

Oh, not necessarily png, I mean, you need to pass the file name with the file extension, and you can check if the value your variable takes has a file extension.
