Hi @adarsh_kotagiri

Try using For Each File or Folder activity and inside that use Download File activity.

Hello @adarsh_kotagiri ,

Even with Microsoft Graph (C#), there isn’t a way to download an entire SharePoint folder in a single call.

You still need to:

  • List all files in the folder (/children)
  • Loop through them
  • Download each file using the /content endpoint

So while Graph gives more flexibility than O365 activities, under the hood it still works the same way — iteration is required.

If you want to avoid UiPath loops visually, you can implement this logic in C# (via Graph), but technically it’s still looping through each file.

Thanks,
Karthik

For each file

the above activity can be used with include sub folders also…if you leave the limit all files are looped

cheers
