How to send a 'create csv table' via email with a unique id

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 83

Hi,

 

I have created a flow that triggers every day once. I need to send this data which is currently in a CSV table to someone by email in an excel format.

The problem I keep running into is, the filename needs to be unique and every time I try to create a unique file name it creates a for each loop which basically sends each item as a separate file in an email.

 

How can i send it in just one email and with a unique identifier for a file name? I am currently using rand but i dont know how reliable it is, ideally, id prefer to use current date.

    Hi @shar27,

    Do you want to send an email with attachments once a day, and use the date as the filename?
    I did some test according to your requirements.
