Flow Action - Convert Word Document to PDF
Unfortunatelly your solution is not working for me, though I think I use same case - filed template, created docx file and trying to convert
Hi katarzynaMoraczewska ,
Do not keep trying to convert a SharePoint file to PDF - It won't work, I remember it used to be an error with the SharePoint connector (that thing is always buggy... Microsoft)
You'll need to convert the file from OneDrive to PDF, then move it to SharePoint. Finally delete it from the OneDrive. That's the "work around" sadly, but if there's no issue with having the file in your OneDrive first, that should do it.
-Here's the way I did it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUoRAxFNxlA (tutorial I found back then)
Hope that works for you.

I just managed!!! RodoMCP
I'm so surprised, but I did it!
The funny thing is it's so simply and so dummy...
After creating sharepoint file I had added "get file properties"
In the "convert...." for file name I've chosen the folder where my form answers should be landing and some past file - just to see what's entered to file name, than deleted file name itself and replaced it with property "file name with extension".
