Error creating File System connection

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to create a File System connection to use in one of my flows, but unsuccessfully.

I tried all the other solutions posted here, such as set the root folder as a shared folder and applying the DOMAIN\user format when filling the credentials. Anyway I always get this same error:

 

"Failed to create connection for connection id '/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_filesystem/connections/shared-filesystem-6B581B0B-CE29-4EC7-A78C-39FF853B4989'. DMTS_EncryptClusterCredentialsErrorCode"

Does anyone have any clue on how to solve it?

Thank you in advance!

You can set the configuration as shown in the screenshot:

Select the folder you want to select, then copy its path and paste it into the connection Root folder configuration. And please take attention to the Username is Domain\Username.

Hi @v-bacao-msft ,

 

Thank you for your answer.

 

I tried to set the root folder as you said, but it didn't work. Also, I made sure the DOMAIN\USER format is correct.

Hi @LucasMartins ,

 

I did a test on my side, but I still can't reproduce a similar issue.

I will give you the whole steps to create a connection of file system:

Step 1: Recreate the gateway

Check your gateway whether the last version:

-If yes, Restart the gateway;

-If no, Install the last gateway.

Step2: Recreate the connection of file system.

Just in case, you can append the root folder to the gateway's data storage path.

It is also worth noting that we need to create on-prem data source connection in default environment.

Please have a try, if you still have problem, please contact us, I hope it will help you.

Hi @v-bacao-msft ,

Thank you for your answer.

I went through all the steps you pointed, but unfortunately I keep getting the same error.

Hi @LucasMartins ,

 

I am afraid that it is difficult to analyze the cause of this problem from my side.

Please consider contacting Support for further assistance.

"Failed to create connection for connection id '/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_filesystem/connections/shared-filesystem-363a225f-37c6-49c2-97f0-bdf1-6c7e5905'. error putting connection /providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_filesystem/connections/shared-filesystem-363a225f-37c6-49c2-97f0-bdf1-6c7e5905 for connector /providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_filesystem"

 

Can you provide with a solution?

 

Thank you.

FIX/ANSWER:

 

There is no need to recreate the gateway, this error is displayed when you try to create the Azure resource in a different region (e.g West Europe vs North Europe). The gateway in PBI has to be in the same region as the GW in azure.

September User Group Success Story: Reading Dynamics 365 & Power Platform User Group

The Reading Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Group is a community-driven initiative that started in September 2022. It has quickly earned recognition for its enthusiastic leadership and resilience in the face of challenges. With a focus on promoting learning and networking among professionals in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform ecosystem, the group has grown steadily and gained a reputation for its commitment to its members!   The group, which had its inaugural event in January 2023 at the Microsoft UK Headquarters in Reading, has since organized three successful gatherings, including a recent social lunch. They maintain a regular schedule of four events per year, each attended by an average of 20-25 enthusiastic participants who enjoy engaging talks and, of course, pizza.   The Reading User Group's presence is primarily spread through LinkedIn and Meetup, with the support of the wider community. This thriving community is managed by a dedicated team consisting of Fraser Dear, Tim Leung, and Andrew Bibby, who serves as the main point of contact for the UK Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Groups.   Andrew Bibby, an active figure in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform community, nominated this group due to his admiration for the Reading UK User Group's efforts. He emphasized their remarkable enthusiasm and success in running the group, noting that they navigated challenges such as finding venues with resilience and smiles on their faces. Despite being a relatively new group with 20-30 members, they have managed to achieve high attendance at their meetings.   The group's journey began when Fraser Dear moved to the Reading area and realized the absence of a user group catering to professionals in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform space. He reached out to Andrew, who provided valuable guidance and support, allowing the Reading User Group to officially join the UK Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Groups community.   One of the group's notable achievements was overcoming the challenge of finding a suitable venue. Initially, their "home" was the Microsoft UK HQ in Reading. However, due to office closures, they had to seek a new location with limited time. Fortunately, a connection with Stephanie Stacey from Microsoft led them to Reading College and its Institute of Technology. The college generously offered them event space and support, forging a mutually beneficial partnership where the group promotes the Institute and encourages its members to support the next generation of IT professionals.   With the dedication of its leadership team, the Reading Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Group is poised to continue growing and thriving! Their story exemplifies the power of community-driven initiatives and the positive impact they can have on professional development and networking in the tech industry. As they move forward with their upcoming events and collaborations with Reading College, the group is likely to remain a valuable resource for professionals in the Reading area and beyond.

September featured user group leader

 Ayonija Shatakshi, a seasoned senior consultant at Improving, Ohio, is a passionate advocate for M365, SharePoint, Power Platform, and Azure, recognizing how they synergize to deliver top-notch solutions. Recently, we asked Ayonija to share her journey as a user group leader, shedding light on her motivations and the benefits she's reaped from her community involvement.      Ayonija embarked on her role as a user group leader in December 2022, driven by a desire to explore how the community leveraged various Power Platform components. When she couldn't find a suitable local group, she decided to create one herself!    Speaking about the impact of the community on her professional and personal growth, Ayonija says, "It's fascinating to witness how everyone navigates the world of Power Platform, dealing with license constraints and keeping up with new features. There's so much to learn from their experiences.:        Her favorite aspect of being a user group leader is the opportunity to network and engage in face-to-face discussions with fellow enthusiasts, fostering deeper connections within the community. Offering advice to budding user group leaders, Ayonija emphasized the importance of communication and consistency, two pillars that sustain any successful community initiative.      When asked why she encourages others to become user group leaders, Ayonija said, "Being part of a user group is one of the best ways to connect with experienced professionals in the same field and glean knowledge from them. If there isn't a local group, consider starting one; you'll soon find like-minded individuals."      Her highlight from the past year as a user group leader was witnessing consistent growth within the group, a testament to the thriving community she has nurtured. Advocating for user group participation, Ayonija stated, "It's the fastest route to learning from the community, gaining insights, and staying updated on industry trends."   Check out her group: Cleveland Power Platform User Group
