Corrupted Attachments from Sharepoint

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 17

I currently have a Flow that adds attachments to an email, pulling from files in a Sharepoint list, but when it does, the files are corrupted and unreadable. I checked in the Sharepoint list, and the files there are fine. I've searched through here for similar issues, but none of the answers seem to apply to my Flow. The Flow is supposed to add Form responses to an Excel sheet, upload attachments from one question to a Sharepoint list, then send an email to specified recipients with those same attachments attached. It all works, but again, those attachments in the email are corrupted, and I do not know how to fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

This is the Flow I have:

    Hi @BrianFecteau 

     

    In the append attachment variable action, can you remove the $content part and select the entire file content output from the dynamic selector under the outputs of the get file content action and try once? 

     

    Hope this Helps!

    Hello @yashag2255,

     

    Thanks for your response. I tried to make that change, but I keep getting this error, and I am not sure how to go about fixing it:

    Hello @yashag2255,

     

    Please disregard my previous. This worked! Thank you so much. If anyone needs to see what the solution looks like, here is a screenshot:

    I am having a similar issue and wondering if you can assist.  My flow works and the email is sent with the attachments, but the attachments are corrupt or not supported.  Is there something I am doing wrong?
