Export attachment to SharePoint List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 13

I'm trying to build a flow that lets me export an attachment to the Attachments column in my SharePoint list. Currently I can add the file to the Documents folder within the SharePoint site using the Create File action. I have tried to use the Create File action and instead set the Folder Path to the attachments column within the list but this does not work.

 

To clarify, the attachment is a PDF which is being generated in PowerApps. The PDF itself is being created but I need to add the PDF to the attachments column.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

    There is an action called Add Attachment. This can be used to add an attachment to an existing SharePoint List item. In the example below I am attaching a file (manager.xlsx) from OneDrive for Business to a SharePoint list item. You will need to know the list item ID for the Add attachment action:
