HTTP request to SharePoint API

[XAEA12]

hi, 

I have a simple flow which sends a HTTP request to a SharePoint library to create a folder it uses the following settings: 

what is the default behavior in case the folder already exists there? from what I see, if the folder is there (same name, same path) it will not override it, any idea how I can change this?

hi@XAEA12  what you can do is create an autoincremental variable to add it into your path like your Name Folder so then you are not doing to get errors with a folder with the same name,

Hi @XAEA12 ,

I did a similar test using Create new folder on my side. I am afraid that using the SharePoint Rest API to create a folder cannot override a folder with the same name.

Please consider whether the folder with the same name already exists before creating the folder, and add an appropriate suffix if it exists.

thanks for the confirmation! will use something different then, but this particular api might come in handy in the future 😉
