Hi all,
In Power Automate (Flows) I want to create a file (.docx) after a form has been created. So far it goes well. But when a form is filled in for the second time and therefore a doucment is created, This one is overwrite the previous document. A unique number such as the time (14:03:44) is not accepted.
What is the best solution for this?

As @Pstork1 said, you should create the document with unique file name.
You could take a try with the expression rand() as below:
