Posted on by Robby 45
Hi Everyone,
 
I'm looking for advice on automatically upload file generated from Business Central online to One Drive. Currently I have Job Queue which will run function and generate a file which will downloaded to my local pc. What I need is after the file generate from that Job Queue, it will automatically push to One Drive.
Any insights you could share would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hi All,
     
    Thanks for your response. As I can see, most of all suggest using Power Automate. May I know is it will need additional cost for Power Automate licenses or it already include on Business Central / Microsoft 365 Subscription?

    Hello Robby,
     
    for that purpose, you can use the standard connection of the BC and OneDrive.
     
     
    Also, you can use Power Automate for achieving this connection and you can find a lot of material on the web about BC OneDrive connection with Power Automate.
     
    Greetings

    I used this action to save some pdf's to Sharepoint: 
    trigger OnAction()
var
    varDoc: Record "Document Attachment";
begin
	varDoc.SetRange("File Name", Rec.FileName);
	if varDoc.FindSet() then
	repeat
		varDoc.OpenInOneDrive("Document Sharing Intent"::Open)
	until varDoc.Next() = 0;
end;
     
    This saves the file to onedrive and then opens it. I couldn't actually figure out how to make the code save to a specific sharepoint folder, so used power automate for the rest
