Why is my create file from OneDrive for Business node isn't working?

Your flow is failing because the OneDrive “Create file” action is not processing the binary payload correctly. When only the $content attribute is passed without the associated metadata, the resulting file becomes corrupted. Conversely, if the folder path or headers are misconfigured, the action returns a 404 (File Not Found) error.

Thank you very much for the answer, really appreciatte it!
Somehow, the flow worked today without any changes, I think it could be some hotfix that made the node mismatch the base64 binary as you said.
As you're the only answer, I'll mark it as solution.
Take care!
