Delete file - OneDrive

Hi All,

I've created a flow that moves a file from my OneDrive to a SharePoint Document Library. In the flow, I have it deleting the file after it has been moved. For some reason, it wouldn't delete the file. When I run the flow I get an error message that states "The resource you are attempting to access is locked". What may I be doing wrong?

Hi @dreaves1,

The delay should get you around this issue as @Jcook points out. The following discusses delaying a Flow:

Thanks for letting us know if this helps resolve the issue for you.

Cheers,

Allan

Re: Delete file - OneDrive

Hello @dreaves1

This is from the file still being in use by Flow.

Try adding a delay action right before you delete the file.
