Hi! 

Sorry last question, how do i copy the files that I've created a substring based on its name?

For example:

_EC meaning Employment Contract, I have to copy this file to Employment Contract folder

Hi , @mj07 

You can try to use the "Get file content" action to get the file content and then use the "create file" action to create the same file in your destination folder.

Hi , @mj07 

I test it in my side , you can check if you put the right field in the "File Identifier"?

And this is the result , this Get FIle content can not get the folder content .

Hi , @mj07 

The fileName need to include the corresponding suffix, like the "400830001_BC.pdf" .

You can try to use one field include the corresponding suffix to try .

Hello

sorry still got error 😔

mj07_0-1700038566102.png

 

Hi , @mj07 

Thanks for your quick response , can you give me the error message in your run history and what the input parameter you pass to the create file?

Best Regards,

Yueyun Zhang

Hi , @mj07 

You may try to check if the "Site Address " and the "Folder Path" is the correct value in your side ?

vyueyunmsft_0-1700040463139.png

You can check if the folder path exist in your site ? You can see the run history to check it .

For  example like this , we need to be able to find this file in SharePoint document:

vyueyunmsft_1-1700040800025.png

And if the flow result is fail, this is not worry , in my side my flow is fail due to it exist the folder instead of the file, but when it is a file , this flow will also work .

vyueyunmsft_2-1700041006902.png

 

And you can also see if the current loop error message here:

vyueyunmsft_3-1700041288749.png

And also you can check if the file have been created in your SharePoint document?

 

Best Regards,

Yueyun Zhang

My create file folder path is same as the create folder 2 path

mj07_2-1700042449177.png

 

Hi , @mj07 

As searched , you can try to disable the "Allow chunking" in create items:

vyueyunmsft_0-1700042435934.png

 

And for your error code , your error code is the root folder is not exist. So i think you can first do not use the dynamic value in your "Folder Path" to test if can run, you can just create a test folder in your SharePoint to test if it can run successfully.

For the same error code , you can refer to :
