Help Needed: Auto-Add .txt Extension to Files Copied from SharePoint to OneDrive via Power Automate

Posted on by JJ-12090900-0

I’ve successfully built a Power Automate flow that copies any new file added to a dedicated folder (DF) in SharePoint directly to a folder in my OneDrive. It works well, but I’ve noticed that some users upload files without any file extension. These are typically .txt files.

I’d like to enhance my existing flow so that:

Power Automate detects if a file copied to OneDrive does not have a file extension.
If missing, it should rename the file to include .txt.
The renamed file should replace the original file (not create a duplicate).

How can I implement this logic within the same flow? Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi

Follow the below steps. Similar action steps are in OneDrive too. I have used the Sharepoint here.
