I have a flow first moving a SharePoint folder (/InconSystemTemp/Contractor Invoice/90) to another folder (/InconSystemTemp/Contractor Invoice/Rubbish/90) and it works fine then I use List Folder on the destination folder but with error below:
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi!
THe problem is probably you need to use character /. Anyway, I tried by adding the Folder from the dynamic content menu, please see the successful result
So, you can add an auxiliary 'Compose' action block, build folder path inside with a combination of text and the dynamic content 'Sharepoint list item ID'. It probably works also without the auxiliary 'Compose', but I haven't tested this second approach
Hope this helps
Hi @JoeAu
This is due to the Folder Identifier. The folder in SharePoint is identified by GUID instead of relative path. In your flow, the ID could be dynamic depending on the previous action Move Folder, foe example as below.
The reason why it works when you select the path via clicking the left folder picker button, is because that is a mapping implemented in the Action, the actual identifier used is also the Folder GUID.
Thanks EricaBao.
I change the flow as below, it gets the File Identifier.
But when I pass it to Get File Properties, it shows error.
Hi!
It seems the error comes from the fact you are assigning 'File Identifier' to 'Get file -properties only-', right?. In such case you need to assign the file ID instead
I also assume your 'Apply to each 2' iterates all through the results provided by 'List folder' right?
Hope this helps
Yes. 'Apply to each 2' iterates all through the results provided by 'List folder'
'Apply to each 2' will copy files from 'List folder' to OneDrive.
but, how can I specify the file id? there is no file id i can select.
Hi!
Did you consider to replace 'List folder' and use 'Get files -properties only-' instead? You need to select the target Library, but optionally you can specify the subfolder also by means of 'Limit entries to folder'
With 'Get files -properties only-' you can obtain the File ID
Hope this hleps
Hi @JoeAu
It's a long thread 🙂
The reason for the failure for 404 is when you manually put the path with slash there is an encoding issue which returns as an invalid path
If you manually typing path replace the / with %252f
%252fInconSystemTemp%252fContractor Invoice%252fRUBBISH
Here are my findings:
Below is the error I replicated.
Replaced slash with %252f
Thanks

Learn more from my blogHi @JoeAu
Another further update about encoding
You could replace slash with %2f or %252f
I am bit confused but both should work.
Thanks

The best fix is use the expression

I use the %252f instead of /
The 'List folder' works and return as below:
Hi!
Did you consider to replace 'List folder' and use 'Get files -properties only-' instead? Once you add 'Get files -propertiesonly-' you need to select the target Library, but optionally you can specify the subfolder also by means of 'Limit entries to folder'
'Get files -properties only-' provides File ID and the rest of the file properties
Hope this helps
Thanks efialttes
I take your advice to use 'Get file (properties only)'
if I use the folder picker button to select the path, then it works.
The folder '90' is varied. Because it is actually the ID no. of the SharePoint List.
So, I try to set the 'Limit Entries to Folder' as below
But it show error that : Folder Not Found

it works.
one more question, how to remove a folder on Sharepoint library?
Hi!
Did you solve your original issue?
CONGRATS!
Now, on your new question, this is an old thread covering 'DElete folder' logic, not sure if there will be a more elegant approach since then
Next steps? My humble suggestion:
1.-Mark this topic as "Solved" by clicking "Accept as a solution". THis way others facing a similar problem can find a solution faster. Please also note you can even select several responses as solution, even from different community members!
2.- Open a new thread for your next question, following the policy: 'One Question, one post'. This way you have more chances to attrack attention for superusers that are seeking for unanswered topics. So if a more elegant approach exist, you have more chances to get appropriate feedback
3.- (OPTIONAL) Click on 'Thumbs up' in any answer you found valuable... or even in all of them 😉
Even though this 3rd step is OPTIONAL, please remember it is the cheapest, easiest way to say thanks to somebody that spent its time simply trying to help. And just between you and me, everytime an inspiring answer receive a kudo in this community, an ewok escapes from The Emperor menace
Thanx for your help making this community great!
i want to mark as solution.
but the Solution button does not here.
So, I've been smashing my head on this issue the entire morning. I didn't understand the accepted answer on this post, so maybe this will help someone.
First, I looked at the Raw Inputs after a succesful run (where you input the folder path from the button) and an unsuccessful run (where the input is from a Compose for example)
And here are the results:
As you can see, the "/" character gets encoded. The frustrating part is that the encoding is only visible if you go to Show Raw Inputs, and not on the preview on power automate.
Another strange thing is that it encodes to "%252f", but we can ignore that: https://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/10736/252f-in-the-url
To fix this, we can use the expression "encodeUriComponent" and this will solve the issue. You can put it directly on the action, or on a compose, doesn't matter: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/logic-apps/workflow-definition-language-functions-reference#e...
