Hello Everyone,

I created a Automate flow and used switch action.  I saw branching error in my create file action where I want to concatenate these values.

Does anybody have a clue what I have to do here?

    Hi @Mysterious,

     

    What are you using in the File Content field? Can you share that expression as well?

     

    For the File Name field you don't have to use the formatdatetime function. You can also use only the utcNow, that accepts a format as well.

     

    Below is an example

     

    File Name

    concat('Import Compliance Detail - #ITSM1308398 ', utcNow('yyyy-MM-dd'), '.xlsx')

     This is the expression I have used in the file content field 

      base64ToBinary(item()?['contentBytes'])
    Thank you!
