Posted on by jessicabishop47 71

Hi,

 

I have set up an automatic flow for when an email comes into my mailbox based on a condition to reply with a selected file a Sharepoint folder. 

 

When the reply email comes, the file name is incorrect and the content does not show as a pdf.

Do you know what I need to change in my flow?

    Hi @jessicabishop47 

    You can use the "Get file properties" action to get the "filename with extension":

    Hope it helps!

    Hi Ferran,

     

    I did that but unfortunately, it didn't work. I was able to solve it by using the 'Get file by path' action.
