Thanks for the video, but here i want to ask what if we have unique file name with changing date and time (i.e. testdoc202405041746.txt). With PowerShell we are able to copy such file after putting testdoc*.txt, but how can we copy this from on premises file server to SharePoint. Appreciated if you can help on this. This flow i want to create for cloud flow using on premises data gateway service

Hi. I see down the left there is a option for FTP. Do you have a video on this? I have been asked to look into using Power Automate, for many tasks where are using file transfers to and from SFTP servers. Of these, many do some file transform (ie SFTP Get file1.csv, produce file2.csv using some scripted logic, and then send file2.csv to another SFTP). Is any of this possible with Power Automate? Thank you.

is it possible to create a flow that goes one by one through a folder with thousands of files all of the same type, open each in a particular software program (all files would open in the same program), export each file in that software program to a destination folder as a different exported file type? wondering if i can do this myself with some trial error/testing or if i should seek outside experti$e to help me. thanks for any input you can provide

Anders, this was a wonderful video! Thank you for taking the time. Is there a way to use conditions with 'get files'? Would be nice to use to identify and select all .txt files 10 days or older
Hey Knucklehead. Thanks a lot for such a comment! Yes, sure. Can you see the "File Filter" in the Get files in folder? Try add *.txt. You can use wildcards (asterisk and question mark). Unfortunately they don't allow us to use either DAV or Jet. Let me know, if that helps. Kind regards, Anders
Great video! I am slowly learning from this, but I have some more advanced workflow which includes: Images upload into Dropbox. I want to create a folder based on the metadata of when the photo was taken. Eg. A folder with MM.DD.YYYY Once I have created a folder, I want to move the image based on the meta data into the appropriate folder. Eg. An Image taken on 01.01.2023 is moved into the folder 01.01.2023, and an image taken on 01.02.2023 is moved into a folder on 01.02.2023 etc. I have managed to work out the creating the folder, but struggling on the condition of moving the image into the correct folder. Do you have any tutorials which have something similar I could look at?

Thank you so much for one of the best Power Automate folder Tutorial. I was wondering is there a way to create a folders from different file name and then move the files to the folder created. (such as file a1, a2, a3, a4, b1, b2, b3, b4, all files a1-4would create a folder labeled a then files a1-4 are moved into that folder and all files labeled b1-4 would create a folder labeled b then files b1-4 are moved into the folder labeled b

How can I get a folder name a document was uploaded to and use a condition to compare it to a column named "Folder Name" in an approver list and get the related approver's name?

Hey Wakko. Not sure 😬 I think you can do all you want with Power Automate, except the premium functions. The PAD is a 30 day trial only. Thank you 😊 Kind regards, Anders
Also I am preparing education for our subsidiaries. When i saw your line of videos, my first tought was this, why not simply show them your videos and pause a long the way,. We are in the transition from the old WinAutomation layout into the MS world. At the same time running ProcessRobot server. Amazing videos.
how do you save a file in a relative path? for example, take your file explorer and type %USERPROFILE%, depending on the computer you're working on it will take you to a certain location. How do you use that in PAD? when I just type this, PAD thinks it's a variable...

Thank you for the videos! Although I have a problem that I yet cant solve, even after searching among you videos. The problem is as follows: I am using Power Apps to create new project folders with the help of Power Flows. After creating the folder for the project, I would like to copy in a template folder with numerous template subfolder and files. Do you have any good ideas of how to do this?
Hey Valdrin. Thanks a lot!! No I'm not sure, since I never used Power Apps (apart from playing around), but I will start to do it soon :) Kind regards, Anders

Useful but the Video quality was poor. Would like to see similar instructions for organizing files and folders in SharePoint. Anyone with a hint? I have a flow that Extracts attachments from email messages sent to a mailbox. Now I want to choose the files, based on the file name and place them in a specific folder in SharePoint. e.g. if the file name contains ABC copy the file to the folder called ABC and so on for DEF and XYZ. Then I need to clean the folder based on file date. the older ones go to ABC/Archive and the newer ones go to ABC/Latest. Any takers?

Hi @anders, your video literally helped me to understand power automate. Could you please create some videos on if any user want to testing on legacy desktop application which is on VM and want to take screenshots, logs and send those logs & screenshot to ADO boards user stories, that would be very helpful?
Hi NNMusic, I think you would use a HTTP or URL connector in Power Automate Cloud (or Desktop) to connect, first, to the VM. Then you would use browser automated actions to control the VM.
Thank you, Anders. It is an excellent material for a beginner like I am. I created a flow in which folders are deleted but got an error with a specific folder saying "access denied". The folder can easily be deleted manually but not by the flow. Any good solution to it?
Hey Mssamichi. Thanks a lot - what a nice message to receive. Sorry for the late reply. Usually it's because it's in use by the robot (either the folder as in your case or a file) and our OS locks it. Try to restart the computer and only run that activity on your folder. Do you still face the problem? Have a great weekend. Kind regards, Anders

Thanks for the video, but here i want to ask what if we have unique file name with changing date and time (i.e. testdoc202405041746.txt). With PowerShell we are able to copy such file after putting testdoc*.txt, but how can we copy this from on premises file server to SharePoint. Appreciated if you can help on this. This flow i want to create for cloud flow using on premises data gateway service

Hi. I see down the left there is a option for FTP. Do you have a video on this? I have been asked to look into using Power Automate, for many tasks where are using file transfers to and from SFTP servers. Of these, many do some file transform (ie SFTP Get file1.csv, produce file2.csv using some scripted logic, and then send file2.csv to another SFTP). Is any of this possible with Power Automate? Thank you.

is it possible to create a flow that goes one by one through a folder with thousands of files all of the same type, open each in a particular software program (all files would open in the same program), export each file in that software program to a destination folder as a different exported file type? wondering if i can do this myself with some trial error/testing or if i should seek outside experti$e to help me. thanks for any input you can provide

Anders, this was a wonderful video! Thank you for taking the time. Is there a way to use conditions with 'get files'? Would be nice to use to identify and select all .txt files 10 days or older
Hey Knucklehead. Thanks a lot for such a comment! Yes, sure. Can you see the "File Filter" in the Get files in folder? Try add *.txt. You can use wildcards (asterisk and question mark). Unfortunately they don't allow us to use either DAV or Jet. Let me know, if that helps. Kind regards, Anders
Great video! I am slowly learning from this, but I have some more advanced workflow which includes:
Images upload into Dropbox.
I want to create a folder based on the metadata of when the photo was taken. Eg. A folder with MM.DD.YYYY
Once I have created a folder, I want to move the image based on the meta data into the appropriate folder. Eg. An Image taken on 01.01.2023 is moved into the folder 01.01.2023, and an image taken on 01.02.2023 is moved into a folder on 01.02.2023 etc.
I have managed to work out the creating the folder, but struggling on the condition of moving the image into the correct folder. Do you have any tutorials which have something similar I could look at?

Could you help in understanding how to get the file name and store it in a data table.
Eg: 📁Folder PAD is having Multiple files having name as

I want to extract the file name and then need to split the text to get only numbers which is before (.Rahul.pdf) and store it in a table so further I can use to process it in a legacy system.

We are in the transition from the old WinAutomation layout into the MS world. At the same time running ProcessRobot server.
Amazing videos.

how do you save a file in a relative path?
for example, take your file explorer and type %USERPROFILE%, depending on the computer you're working on it will take you to a certain location.
How do you use that in PAD? when I just type this, PAD thinks it's a variable...

Useful but the Video quality was poor. Would like to see similar instructions for organizing files and folders in SharePoint. Anyone with a hint? I have a flow that Extracts attachments from email messages sent to a mailbox. Now I want to choose the files, based on the file name and place them in a specific folder in SharePoint. e.g. if the file name contains ABC copy the file to the folder called ABC and so on for DEF and XYZ. Then I need to clean the folder based on file date. the older ones go to ABC/Archive and the newer ones go to ABC/Latest. Any takers?

Hi @anders, your video literally helped me to understand power automate. Could you please create some videos on if any user want to testing on legacy desktop application which is on VM and want to take screenshots, logs and send those logs & screenshot to ADO boards user stories, that would be very helpful?
Hi NNMusic, I think you would use a HTTP or URL connector in Power Automate Cloud (or Desktop) to connect, first, to the VM. Then you would use browser automated actions to control the VM.

Nice tutorial!
Helped me save a lot of time.
Thanks a lot, Tayla. Have you seen the new version: ruclips.net/video/igl93T9Jrmc/видео.html Kind regards, Anders
HI Anders, Very useful . VERY CLEAR -- thanks
when I'm trying to copy your moves, to add a new input variable - the default window that opens up is with a "DATA TYPE: Aa Text" -
it will not open "data type: String" as in your video and the drop down options has only two options regarding text
please clarify why is that and how can I open a new string input variable
Hey lavi. That one I havn't seen, sorry :( Kind regards, Anders. Ps sorry for the late reply, did you solve it?
And thank you for the nice words :)
Me too. No "string" available. Only Text, or "sensitive text", whatever that is.
