Sync Onedrive files to Google Drive

Hello

I would like to setup a continuous sync between Onedrive to Google Drive. I can see a template called "Sync new OneDrive Files to Google Drive Files" link - "https://us.flow.microsoft.com/en-us/galleries/public/templates/19f8bfaa802c4b53b24f61ceb6de11ba/sync-new-onedrive-files-to-google-drive-files/"

I would like to understand what happens to files that are updated in Onedrive after the initial sync. Will this template help to keep the file in Google Drive updated as I continue to update my file in Onedrive?

Hi @yesdharam ,

This template can only synchronize newly created files and cannot synchronize files that have been updated.

If you want to sync the updated file as well, you could create another Flow to update the file.

Here you need to specify the Folder, so you can find the files that need to be updated in Google Drive according to DisplayName.

I really didn't mean to reply, but as I got back to this question a dialog requested me to give my honest opinion on the Power Automate community and while I'm generally pleased, I didn't get to file my answer:

Unfortunately this does not work for me at all. I cannot find "List of files ID". Tried various other ways, no luck. I did not expect it to be so difficult to sync OneDrive with Google Drive folders. Any ideas? Thanks!

I know that this is a very old post, but I found a solution based on @v-bacao-msft post, that actually works. So it goes like this. Selecting respective folders is self-explenatory. The next part was tricky. I use 'Name' property twice in condition, once for GoogleDrive and once for OneDrive. Then in 'true' branch I get file content based on OneDrive File ID (other options kept failng), then I update GoogleDrive File based in its File ID (once again, other options kept failing) and file content obtained in previous step. Et voila 🙂

Hello everyone,
I am also looking for a solution to this problem. The described solution however does not work and some of the setting shown seemingly are no longer possible.

Does anybody have a working solution to sync modified files?
