    Hi Dennis,
    I was trying the method. However I am getting Bad Gateway error in HTTP request.
    Can you please share insights over the same if you have any.

    Hi Rituparna,

    This comment section is a bit limited to troubleshoot. My suggestion would be to create a thread on the Power Users forum:
    https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Power-Automate/ct-p/MPACommunity

    This way I or somebody else can help out. Over there it is easy to attach screenshots or place code snippets. That is probably the quickest way to solve your issue.

    Also make sure you place the link to that thread over here in a new comment, to make me aware of your issue.

    Hi Dennis,
    Is it possible to remove and add a sensitivity label on a file in a custom library within a Microsoft 365-connected SharePoint site? Additionally, can you convert a Word document to a PDF using standard or premium connectors when the Word document already has a sensitivity label assigned to it?
    Thank you!
