hi everyone,

 

i created a form which included a section on uploading attachments.

 

i then created a flow to send this information to the desired recipients. The flow works but my attachments won't open!

 

Please help.

    This is probably an encoding issue or something like that. Have you tried something simpler, like just saving the attachment to a SharePoint or OneDrive location? If you can do that, you can just email a link to the file instead of emailing the file itself.

    hi! thanks for responding.

     

    the team i am sending the attachments to do not have access to our internal sharepoint.

     

    is there any other way?

    Looking at your flow - it seems you have to get the file content so that it can added as Attachment content 

     

    Thanks & Regards,
