Move File - Bad Request

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 164

I am setting up an archiving flow for the company calendar.  I always get a "Bad Request" with a status code of 400 when using the "Move File".  The error details:

Failed to verify the existence of source object at 'https://xxxxxxxxx.sharepoint.com/14015' due to error 'The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)'.
clientRequestId: 93e9f90e-71f2-47f4-9d6f-77460a00d881
serviceRequestId: 93e9f90e-71f2-47f4-9d6f-77460a00d881

 

I'm moving the file from one library to a subsite "Archive" library called "CompanyCalandarArchive".

 

What am I doing wrong?

    Hi @S_Tran ,

     

    Could you please share a screenshot of the configuration of your flow?

    Please make sure that you have choose the file from the picker or choose the identifier from the trigger in the File to move field of the Move file action.

    @v-alzhan-msft 

    I manually entered the destination folder, should it auto-populate?  My URL for the folder is:  https://xxx.sharepoint.com/archive/Lists/CompanyCalendarArchive/calendar.aspx

     

    The flow failed even when I manually entered /List/CompanyCalendarArchive for the destination folder.  I feel like this error has something to do with the filepath.

    I changed the file to move from "ID" to "Identifier" and it seems to work now.  I had the wrong filepatch for the destination folder and corrected it.  Now it's throwing another error:

    Missing or mismatched field definition on the destination list for source field '_dlc_ExpireDate' type 'DateTime'. Source site template id 'TeamCollaborationSite', target site template id 'TeamCollaborationSite'. Total blocked root objects in this operation is [1].

    serviceRequestId: 83f3efe5-e2e4-41bd-a7f8-2653c5e4d2c1

     

     

    I have a filter for it to archive anything older than 2 years based on the end date of the calendar item.

    I was able to select the right library now it's throwing a different errror:

     

    Missing or mismatched field definition on the destination list for source field '_dlc_ExpireDate' type 'DateTime'. Source site template id 'TeamCollaborationSite', target site template id 'TeamCollaborationSite'. Total blocked root objects in this operation is [1].clientRequestId: 83f3efe5-e2e4-41bd-a7f8-2653c5e4d2c1
    serviceRequestId: 83f3efe5-e2e4-41bd-a7f8-2653c5e4d2c1

     

    Please see attached flow screenshot.

    Hi @S_Tran ,

     

    You should make sure that the two libraries would have the same columns in it so you could move the file from one to another.

    Please take a try to create two new library with same columns in it so the issue could be solved.

     

    Best Regards,

    Alice

    @v-alzhan-msft 

    I did make sure that all the columns where there.  The column that is in question was not created by me.  

     

    I was successful with using:

    -Get File Content

    -Create Item

    -Delete File

     

    But I would think the "Move File" would be more efficient.

    The error message indicate that you couldn't move files between the two libraries.

    I suggest that you could take a try to move files from different folders in a same library.
