Posted on by 819 Moderator
My flow is working however it is creating empty pdf in my Shared docs and sending an email with corrupted Pdf. ( Plus I am receiving image attachment on email with that also. and I am able to open that.)
 
(FYI  - I was recieving Word doc and image attachment before perfectly fine. My HR requesting for Pdf so I converted Word to Pdf and this issue occurs.)
 
How can I make this work.
 
(I think that there is a problem in selecting File Identifier and next step also.)

    I think the "create file" action should only contain the Body content from the "Convert Word Document to PDF":

    Hi
     
    The file name will not be that ID you placed there.
    I am confused why do you have multiple bodies going into your create?
     
    Ok I am totally confused
     
    1. You created a word document
    2. You converted it ok
    but you are adding multiple bodies from something, versus using the Get File Content AFTER making the word document and using that as the body
    -Why are you naming it like that? Why are you not just using the name from the File you created for Word in sharepoint?
     
    Sorry totally confused at what you build why do you have a convert, then later  you have another create file.
