Content Copy source question for Automate app access

[johnl...@gmail.com]

I'm trying to backup an Automate app using the Content Copy process block. I'm using the source "content://com.llamalabs.Automate.provider/automate-app" where 'automate-app' is the name of the desired app.

Unfortunately, I get a "File not found" error when the block runs,

Thanks in advance for any insight you may provide.

An Automate app? Do you mean an Automate flow?
If so the URI to it is:
content://com.llamalab.automate.provider/flows/<id of flow>/data

I've made the suggested changes, and the Content Copy flow block still fails. Here is the log:

2017-09-03 16:46:55.953 INFO 131@2: Content copy
2017-09-03 16:46:56.013 FAIL 131@2: java.io.FileNotFoundException: No files supported by provider at content://com.llamalab.automate.provider/flows/Daily Automate Backup/data

It so happens that it's attempting to extract the currently running flow, if that makes any difference.

Thanks again for any help.

The <id of flow> is should be a number, not the flow title.

Where can I find the id-number of a given flow?

[Henrik "The Developer" Lindqvist]

You can see the Flow URI in the Flow beginning block, the first number in it is the id.

[johnl...@gmail.com]

Each flow's Flow Beginning block has the same number, 1. This appears to be a block-id, rather than a flow-id.

Only by trial and error was I able to produce the following partial cross-reference of pre-installed flows:

1-Flashlight
2-Intruder photo
3-Home Wi-Fi
etc.

Perhaps you could sort the list of flows by flow-id, rather than flow-name.

[Henrik "The Developer" Lindqvist]

The *first* number in the Flow URI is the id, e.g.:
content://com.llamalab.automate.provider/flows/9/statements/1

9 is the id, 1 is the block.

My apologies. I did not scroll down when viewing the Flow Beginning block. Thanks for your patience.

I am now having issue with the Gdrive upload action block. I have tried specifying either a <path> or a <fully-qualified-filename> for the Google Drive Remote Path, and received two differing error messages as shown:

2017-09-06 12:49:43.920 INFO 167@3: Google Drive upload
2017-09-06 12:49:48.145 FAIL 167@3: com.llamalab.fs.gdrive.AmbiguousPathException: /phone/Automate Backups/Daily Automate Backup

I had to specify a <fully-qualified-filename> for the Local Path to get this far.

The directory structure is pre-existing in Google Drive.

Thanks in advance, as always.

The AmbiguousPathException is raised when there's multiple directories with the same name, in the same directory. Visit the Google Drive web page and fix the issue: https://drive.google.com
