    Solved it - posting as a reply for future reference in case it's helpful to someone else.

     

    Need to use "Get File Properties" after "For A Selected File" because the Dynamic Value "ID" from "For A Selected File" is not the "Identifier" that "Get File Content" wants.

     

    So "Get File Properties" uses "ID" as input, and then you use its output "Identifier" to "Get File Content" and works like a charm.

     

     

    Entirely unnecessary, imo, because why can't "For A Selected File" just return all the properties for that selected file? BUT more importantly is not referenced anywhere in the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/sharepointonline/#get-file-content for this Connector.

     

    5 hours I will never get back. :unamused:
