Flow creation using .MSG files attached to emails to OneDrive.

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 15

Hi,

 

I am trying to build a flow which checks a new email with an attachment arriving in a mailbox. The attachment is a .MSG file.

 

The flow then takes the attachment, adds a time stamp and creates a new file on One-Drive.

 

When i built it, it says the flow works but never creates the file in One-Drive. Does MS Flow have a limitation with .MSG files? It works with .txt files and .JPG

 

Thanks

 

Gareth

    A similar problem was reported recently in the following post

    https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Saving-email-attachments-msg-with-flow/td-p/260699

    If you have just verified the same behaviour, it seems this feature is still not supported

    Hope this helps

    You can try the BetaVare MSG Exporter tool to export MSG files to Outlook PST with emails and attachments. by using MSG Exporter software we can bulk convert MSG files to PST, MBOX, EML, and EMLX. It provides many advanced features to the users. The software is convenient for everyone even non-technocrats can use this software without any assistance. you can download its free demo version and convert 10 emails per folder.

    The flow is started by the user.
    The user inputs the recipient's details.
    Flow will locate the correct folder.
    Flow will collect all the files.
    Flow will add the files to an attachment array.
    Flow will send the email with the attachments.
