Connecting Sharepoint folder Error 405

[seitwhertz]

Hey,

when trying to connect to a sharepoint folder

I get the error message :
We encountered an error while trying to connect.

Details: "Web.Contents failed to get contents from 'https://*******.sharepoint.com/sites/********/_api/web/lists/getbyid('********)/RenderListDataAsStream?cid=*******' (405): Method Not Allowed"

Accessing the sharepoint files is not an issue. They are part of an MS-Teams channel
There are subfolder in it, but that shouldnt be an issue, is it ?

Subfolders are fine. Could you maybe copy your query from the advanced editor? The error doesn't look like something you'd get from the folder connector since it's querying a list by the ID (the folder connector gets all files in the site and lets you filter down).

Hey, maybe I am doing it wrong. I am just the IT guy who has to troubleshoot this issue.

I opened the advanced editor, and tried adding a new source, choose sharepoint folder and copied the site URL
https://*******.sharepoint.com/:f:/r/sites/***********/

Then I get the error message I mentioned. Can I still see the query it tried using it ?

Take the /:f/r out of the URL - that breaks it. It wants the "clean" version.
