I am currently building a flow that should read the contents of a .msg file. This file is base64 encoded and when transferring the data held in this to an online base64 decoder I am returned the appropriate information however, when I use the base64ToString() expression in my power automate flow it returns this data in the following format:
(sample of data)
"

using an online UTF16 decoder against this data returns this information in a string format where the details I require can be selected. Is there any way to achieve this entirely through a flow? or any reason why the base64ToString() expression is returning my original request in this format?
Hi @dmcvey :
I am afraid that Power Automate does not have an out-of-the-box action that can parse the content of the msg file and return the text in the email body currently . If you need such a function, I suggest you look for a third-party connector or API, or go to the Ideal forum to post your suggestions.
