Basically, I’m building a Digital Archive on a SharePoint Library and using PowerApps as an interface (To support staff working from home); in details I have a SharePoint Document Library (7,000 Folders and about 18,000 files) in a Gallery in PowerApps, showing only folder names without contents. What I want to achieve is the following:
Filtering the Gallery on isFolder=true will give you a list of folders in that parent folder, isFolder=false will give you the list of files. Hope that points you in the right direction.

How do I add files to document library?
Users can click the right of the toolbar to change the view of the library from Details (a list view) to Tiles (to view files as icons). In the web part, users can add new folders and documents and/or upload files and folders. The easiest way to add files and folders is to drag them into the library from another location.
I thought the best way is to fetch the folder contents from SharePoint using Flow, and saving them to a gallery – but I don’t have any experience with JSON and have no idea how to do this correctly. I don’t know whether to use ” GET FILES ” or ” LIST FOLDER ” or ” SEND AN HTTP REQUEST ” – honestly they all confuse me lol
Can you drag and drop files into the library?
When I drag a file over the library, it says the normal “Drag the items to any location” but dropping them does nothing. I can use “New -> Item” and upload files individually however. Another user who needs to get the files now goes into the library and does not have a Download button on the bar at the top of the library.
How can I upload files to my library?
I can use “New -> Item” and upload files individually however. Another user who needs to get the files now goes into the library and does not have a Download button on the bar at the top of the library. She only has “Delete Item” and “Move To”. That’s it.
