Sharepoint files and folders created with Power Automate do not sync to desktop (OneDrive)
Damien_Rosario
The content is showing up in SharePoint, but not in the OneDrive folders created when you make a M365 group. Not the personal OneDrive, the company's group folder. They are accessed in the lower left under Quick Access in Explorer. All other modifications to these folders sync as expected, both to and from the web, and also across all the computers of members of the group.
We are having exactly the same issue. the only ''workaround'' i've found so far is to add an item (PDF, excel file, anything) in the online folder and then the folder+subfolders all instantly appears in the File Explorer. I hope they fix it.
However, that means adding a file manually. Doing it via power automate does not work.
What else works is pausing the sync in the OneDrive app and unpause it immediately. However, this does not make sense because I automate stuff to reduce manual steps, not to change task A (create folders) to task B (manually enforce the sync).
It's frustrating!😩
