SharePoint Connector in Power Automate Desktop - Create File

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by dlazic 38

Running into an issue with Power Automate Desktop - SharePoint Connector - Create a file on Windows 11 machine. Once we pull it into the PAD, we get prompted for login, once login is selected, it gives the following error: 

 

"Unable to download redirect from api.powerapps.com. Unable to open this internet site. The request site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later."

 

We have had this issue in the past and resolved it by adjusting firewalls settings to allow all incoming traffic TCP/UDP for PAD.Designer.exe and PAD.AutomationServer.exe.

 

However, on this new pc, we cannot get it to work.

Any thoughts?

    Was able to resolve the issue by doing the following:

     

    • Navigate to make.powerautomate.com 
    • Click on Data
    • Click on Connections
    • Ensure that there is a SharePoint connection listed, if not, create one.
    • Navigate to Power Automate Desktop, drag SharePoint -> Create File action onto the PAD and it should work, although you might have to create a new connection reference in the same screen.

    Thanks
