Passing File Data from Parent Flow to Child Flow

Question

I am struggling with passing file data from a Parent Flow to a Child Flow.

In the parent flow, I use SharePoint Get Items to pull a list containing the individual SharePoint sites within our domain. At the moment, this is running about 230 individual sites. Using Apply to Each, I peruse through the sites using Get Files (properties only) to locate any files created in the last 20 minutes. If there are files created, I again use the Apply to Each, and pass the information to my Child Flow.

The child flow is pretty simple. It responds to the parent; SharePoint Copy File to a new location in SharePoint; Logs the entry into an excel table; then sends an email.

Copies of the flow are below. HOWEVER, here is the challenge. I can not figure out how to identify the file that needs to be passed into the Child. I have played with this for hours.

I beleive the challenge is, I am unable to select the File Identifier from the Get Files Properties Only step in my Dynamic Content Menu...only from the orginal Get Items step. But I might be wrong. Not finding much in my research.

Answer 1

If this is not yet resolved, you have to use Get File Content action, pass the Identifier to it and pass the File Content from Get File Content action to the Child Flow.

Answer 2

In my opinion, the File Identifier is just used to identify the specific file, which is always a necessary parameter in the flow with "*". In the child flow, there are "SharePoint Site", "Hotel" and "Acctfile" to specific which file to use. So there is no need to fill File Identifier in "File Content Name".

What's more, the type of File Identifier data may not match what it should be in "File Content Name".
