I need to create a workflow: when a new email with an attachment arrives in the shared mailbox save it to SharePoint
The flow works and it saves file in SharePoint but for some reason, the excel file is saying that the workbook file format doesn't match the extension and I can't open it

I tried base64ToBinary(items('Apply_to_each')?['contentBytes']) in file content but it doesn't work.

 

Please assist.
