Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

I have a SharePoint list used as source for a Gallery. One of the fields in the list is a hyperlink to a file located on SharePoint. It has the structure:

https://mycompany.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/teams/SPSite/Folder/Filename.ext

In PowerApp I can use Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(...) to send emails with attachments, and I got it working when using a file select control to select files on my computer and populate a collection.

However, I want to send the file referenced to via the hyperlink, but I cannot figure out how to extract the binary content to put in the ContentBytes field in the collection.

Yes, I have seen an old post (more than a year ago) with a similar issue, but it wasn't solved, so I wonder if anyone has figured it out in the meantime...

Attachments: AddColumns(ClearCollect(AttachmentToSend,
{ ContentBytes:

??????,

Name: ((Gallery2_1.Selected.Title) & " checklist.docx")
}
), "@odata.type", "")
