Hi!

 

I usually prefer working with Google Drive but I can’t this time.

 

I want to trigger if there’s a new folder in OneDrive - works!

 

Then I want fo find a file within this folder - does not work!

 

The filename is meeting_saved_closed_caption.

 

I have already removed all special characters like suggested here:

 

For the folder I am working with the Folder ID provided from the trigger.

 

 

Any suggestions?

 

I want to save my caption transcript from Zoom as txt file. OneDrive is only for private use.

Hi @Sandra Hoffmann 

Good question.

Try using the Folder Path instead of the Folder ID.

Hi @Troy Tessalone 

 

I’ve tried nearly every possible combination. Nothing seems to work.

With the folder path, I get this response:

In my opinion, it seems to be a bug. What do you think?

@Sandra Hoffmann 

The File Path should be used. (see screenshot)

However, I’m unable to successfully find a file using a partial match or a full match (with and without the file format).

I’d raise this issue with Zapier Support: https://zapier.com/app/get-help
