Excel Email Attachment is not Opening Properly

(0) Share

Posted on by akasper

I have built the attached flow and am able to save an excel attachment from an email into my desired SharePoint folder location. When I attempt to open the excel file in the SharePoint folder, I receive the attached error. However, when I download the file directly from the email, I have no issues.

Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated.

Parameters of your Create File action might not be correct.

Can verify the input to the File Content property?

@SudeepGhatakNZ see attached - not sure how I can edit the parameters from this view as I do not want the file name or contents to change

Could you please add a "Compose" action to display and print information about the attachment itself?

Also, make sure you are referencing the correct fields in the "Create file" action. These fields should come from the output of the "Get attachment" action above it.

I have a similar issue where this error pops up as I save a PowerBi export to xlsx, save the file to SP and email it. The SP excel opens fine but I get this error on the email attachment. Any fix?
