Attachment content not an available option

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I am using MS Flows to take data from a SharePoint list into an approval email and I am now working on adding any potential attachments to that email.

 

I have created a Get attachments block:

Followed by a Get attachment content block:

But then when looking at the approval email I don't get the attachment content options I am expecting, and none of the available options work (The attachment always gives a content error)

What am I missing?

    Hey @Anonymous 

     

    Can you check and confirm if the approval action is in the apply to each loop?

    Just a heads up-> there is a bug going on in the approvals action that keeps the approval going on when there is an attachment and it works fine without the attachments. This is being worked on and should be fixed soon. 

     

    Hope this Helps!

    Thanks @yashag2255 

     

    The approval was in a separate loop block so I moved it into the same as the Get attachment content block and it is now working!
