Hi,
I'm using "When a file is created (properties only)" as a trigger.
The will trigger also when a folder is created. So, is anyway if the flow checks if the "file" /item was a folder or file?
The reason I need is that later in my flow I'm using "Get file Content" and I'm getting an error when the "file" from the trigger was a folder.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Sure.
So I have compared if the "Name" is equal to "File name with extension" which both I'm taking from the trigger "When file/item was created"
I'm not sure if it's the best solution, but it's working for me.
Hi @MartinKuzmicz,
Could you try a condition in your flow and only run if the filename contains a period (".")? Not a perfect solution, but might do the trick?
Not really, because I know that users may use "." in the folder name.
But I think, I found the solution. Thanks for the reply.
@MartinKuzmiczCan you please share the solution, so anyone who finds this will be able to use your answer?
Sure.

Hello @MartinKuzmicz
I'm working on a similar flow, however when I'm using the trigger "when a file is created (Properties only)", perform a test run and when I create a folder in the specified "Folder Id", the flow is not recognizing the folder.
I'm not sure if I'd be able to help, but I don't completely understand what you mean with your message. (Sorry! ) Can you provide more details?
Hi, I was looking for the same thing and I have found an action for checking if a file is a folder, so maybe it will be of help for someone else. Here is the flow sequence:
File created action has IsFolder property which can be checked if it is True or false.
