Pipeline to create Sharepoint folders
Hey everyone, I'm in need of some help formatting a pipeline to create/update Sharepoint folders. Is there good documentation anywhere on it? I haven't found much more than general information on the ...

Thank you so so much! After a ton of trial and error yesterday, this is basically what I have set up... The issue I'm running into though is that the pipeline just gives me an error message whenever it encounters an "empty list" of folders. It tells me that one of the arguments is invalid, but when I test it where I know all the folders exist it works just fine. Have you experienced this? I have a support ticket open on it, but I wonder if it's a common issue.

Elena, I have a similar issue, albeit in Box instead of Sharepoint. If I have a pipeline step of create a folder, and a follow up step of create a subfolder, it fails....like the quickness of pipelines doesn't acknowledge that parent folder exists *yet. I'm curious if adding a pause (5 min or something will help your pipeline work...) it does for mine. Just something to try.
Thanks

- Hey Jeremy, yep, I've definitely experienced the issue of the pipeline getting ahead of itself and not recognizing newly created records. My typical solution is to make the system search for the record it's just created and then move forward, which works great for me.
Unfortunately, this is an issue where the pipeline is supposed to return empty queries, and then move forward by creating a folder in Sharepoint where one doesn't currently exist. It's falsely giving an error whenever it gets an empty list of results, and the same step works just fine (without errors) when it does find results. I've got a support ticket going, so fingers crossed it gets resolved!
