Invalid dwg file created in OneDrive with Power Automate

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello all,

 

I made a flow in Power Automate today to get the attachments from some emails that i receive daily and put it into a folder in OneDrive, until then ok, all working, but some of the files i receive in my emails are .dwg files and when i try to download this file and open it in AutoCAD or similar software i get a error message saying that the file is invalid. I think that is something with the way that the Power Automate saves the file in one drive, you guys know any workaround? Something that can help me to get this files without a problem.

Note: The file that i uploaded for test is a drawing that i have on my computer for a lot of time and it's working well, it's not a problem from the main file.

    Hi @glawberc1 

     

    Can you share a screenshot of the flow run history and expend the create file action to see what parameters were sent to onedrive?

     

    Also, have you trued providing a static name along with the extension for file name in the create file action? 

     

    Hope this helps!
