Copy (or Move) OneDrive Business file to another OneDrive Business folder **based on filename**

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 84_E 2

Need help with this.

 

On a weekly basis, files will be saved to /ICE-Attachments (see image). Their are multiple filename formats in folder

Filename format will be "CreditLevels_YYYYMMDD.csv"

 

Attached is what I've assembled (and is failing on me)

 

I simply want the "CreditLevels" file that gets added to be copied/moved to /Levels

 

When i don't use the condition with filename, every file added gets moved (not what i want)

    Hi @84_E ,

     

    I noticed that the trigger you used was 'When a file is created'.

     

    The output of this trigger is encrypted, here is my test:

     

    Select Use this trigger.

    Run the flow, the 'file name' in the trigger output is different from the file name, which makes the condition unable to return the expected result.

    I suggest you use trigger 'When file is created(properties only)'.

    I made a sample for you:

    Create the file in the first folder.

    vxiaochenmsft_5-1671592538215.png

     

     

    In the trigger output, the file name is displayed normally.

    The file is also moved to the second folder.
