Attached File from Email - Data within .CSV File scrambled

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4

I have a Power Automate setup to extract an attached file from an email and save this in a designated folder on OneDrive.

 

However on the odd occassion the data in the file is scrambled. The attached file is always a .CSV file and comes in a standard format each and ever time. 

 

This is an example of what happens - others will work away find but some come in this format:

I've also had a succesful Test and the data is there, ran it again and the data is as above. 

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hi @HDMR 

     

    Can you share a screenshot of your flow? The screenshot you shared shows that binary string of the file (the content bytes) have been added to the file so there might be some configuration that needs to be changed in the flow for this to work appropriately. 

     

    Hope this Helps!
