Certified Connector

Name of Connector

Box - Create file

Describe the bug

When creating a file that is only 1 layer/folder deep, it is creating a new folder named "All Files" instead of the intended destination. When selecting the Root Box folder it works fine, when going 2 or more folders deep, it works fine. Code view below of all 3, Root, 1 folder deep, 2 folders deep.

Root: (Working)

{ "type": "OpenApiConnection", "inputs": { "parameters": { "folderPath": "/", "name": "@variables('FileName')", "body": "@body('Get_file_content_1_-_Get_Data_to_Copy_to_Box')" }, "host": { "apiId": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_box", "connection": "shared_box-1", "operationId": "CreateFile" } }, "runAfter": { "Create_file": [ "SUCCEEDED" ] }, "metadata": { "/": "Box" } }

1 Folder Deep ( Error here )

{ "type": "OpenApiConnection", "inputs": { "parameters": { "folderPath": "//All Files/TEST Folder 1", "name": "@variables('FileName')", "body": "@body('Get_file_content_-OneDrive_Template_with_Scripts')" }, "host": { "apiId": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_box", "connection": "shared_box-1", "operationId": "CreateFile" } }, "runAfter": { "Get_file_content_1-_Get_Data_to_Copy_to_Box": [ "SUCCEEDED" ] }, "metadata": { "//All Files/TEST Folder 1": "TEST Folder 1", "/": "Box" } }

2+ Folder Deep (Working)

{ "type": "OpenApiConnection", "inputs": { "parameters": { "folderPath": "/TEST Folder 1/TEST Folder 2", "name": "@variables('FileName')", "body": "@body('Get_file_content_1_-_Get_Data_to_Copy_to_Box')" }, "host": { "apiId": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_box", "connection": "shared_box-1", "operationId": "CreateFile" } }, "runAfter": { "Create_file_1": [ "SUCCEEDED" ] }, "metadata": { "/TEST Folder 1/TEST Folder 2": "TEST Folder 2" } }

The "//Al Files/" folder shows up when only selecting 1 folder in the Root directory.

Is this a security bug?

No, this is not a security bug

What is the severity of this bug?

Severity 2 - One or more important connector features are down

To Reproduce

Use a Box.com Create File connector and select one folder in the root directory as the destination. It will instead create a new folder "All Files" and create the destination folder inside instead of the intended target folder.

Expected behavior

Instead of prefixing "//All Files/Target Folder" it should just be "/Target Folder" in the code view.

Environment summary

Power Automate Online, Online Connector, OS Win 10.

Additional context

If the code could be edited it would be a simple fix.
