I wanted to check if you are encountering any data or file size limitations when transferring data from SharePoint to Azure Blob Storage via a Logic App. Based on our findings, there is a 100MB maximum file size restriction for the SharePoint action when downloading files.

References:

Do you have a solution to handle this limitation, or are the files you are fetching below 100MB? Please confirm.

And if so is there a work around by which we can reach higher data limit.

FYI ... We have a logic app standard plan.

    Hi @Sakib Ali Choudhary ,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

    When transferring data from SharePoint to Azure Blob Storage using a Logic App, it's important to be aware of file size limitations. The maximum file size for SharePoint actions when downloading files is 100 MB. If you are dealing with files larger than this limit, you may face challenges during the transfer process.

    • To manage larger files, you might consider implementing message chunking, which enables you to divide large messages into smaller segments. However, the specific limitations and capabilities may differ depending on the connectors utilized in your Logic App. For Azure Blob Storage, files exceeding 50 MB can be processed using chunking, but the SharePoint action has a maximum limit of 100 MB.
    • If you need to transfer files larger than 100 MB, you may need to use a workaround, such as splitting the files into smaller segments before transferring them or employing an alternative method to upload the files directly to Azure Blob Storage.

    For your reference, please review the following documentations for further clarification.

    I hope this is helpful! Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions or need further assistance.
