The sharePoint check out file connector fails if the file is locked. I've been trying to use the Send an HTTP request to SharePoint connector to get SharePoint to tell me the name of the user who has locked the file.

https://xxxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx/xx/libraryName/items(@{triggerBody()?['entity']?['ID']})/File/LockedByUser

This is failing with a Page not found error. I know I have something wrong in the line above. Please help.

Thanks,

Anne
