Hi Nkhatiwada,

The site URL does not look valid or cannot be translated by Power Automate. Try using the fully qualified URL i.e. https://yourtenantname.sharepoint.com/ssp.

I hope this helps.

Hello Norm,

I tried different things to get the URL but I have this only DavWWWRoot. Not sure why the url has back slashes.

Nkhatiwada sorry I didn't notice that you were trying to connect to SP 2010. The SharePoint connector only supports SharePoint 2013 or 2016 farm using the On-Premises Data Gateway.

Are you able to migrate the list to SPO?

  Not all. Norman Young
  I tried different ways, but moving files and list from SP 2010 to SharePoint online is really difficult. Microsoft created a really good app Power Automate to create the flow to move/copy the lists but doesn't support SP 2010. That's little thing they could have made happen.
  Thank you Norm for getting back to me to reply my questions.

    Can you export the 2010 list to Excel? If so, Excel will let you export to SharePoint as a new list.
