## Common Errors

### Shared Link Already Exists

If the shared link has already been created, the step will cause an error. To correct this, remove the existing shared link with a **Remove Shared Link** step.

### Path Not Found

If the designated path does not exist, the step will return an error. To correct this, change the desired folder path to be properly spelled and ensure the folder exists.
