Blank PDF received in email with flow after converting it from word doc

Posted on by 819 Super User 2025 Season 2

Good morning everyone,

 

My flow is populating word and sending it to my email. New step to convert word to pdf and send it to email is sending me blank pdf on email. Attached my flow for reference. 

 

And my word documents are not being opened in shared documents folder(can open while I am receiving email attachment with word doc).

 

How can I make it work.

    @mtsts 

    After Convert Word to PDF action, you will need to add another Create file action to save the document as PDF.

    It worked for me as expected!
     
    File Content(Create File 1) - Body of Populate Microsoft Word Document
     
    Also, I added one more action - Create file after Convert Word Document to PDF
    After that I added new steps - 
     
    Initialize Variable
    Get File Content
    Append to Array Variable
    Send an email 
     
     
    Attachment Content(Send an Email function)  -  I combined two variables to get document and attachment both on email.
