Email CSV with Leading Zeros Content

Hello,

I have a scheduled flow where I read data from PowerBI dataset, select the data, create a csv table, and send the email in outlook. One column in the data has leading zeros that I cannot remove and the column is text format. When I open the attachment in the email, all leading zeros are removed.

I analyze the input feeding into the email, and the table has all leading zeros. At some point in creating the email or when I open the attachment the leading zeros are removed. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
