    You can use Convert Base64 to file action to convert your Base64 data into actual file.

    Base64 encoded text parameter: %GetEmailsV3Response.value[0].attachments[0].contentBytes%

    File path parameter: C:\Deenu\%GetEmailsV3Response.value[0].attachments[0].name%

    You may want to use "Retrieve email messages from Outlook" function to save the attachment. Then you can open the file and save as PDF.
