I am trying to add attachments to a SPO document library from a Power App.

I am following this guide

File Attachments in Power Apps - The best way to do them (youtube.com)

I get an error when I try to call the flow...

"your formula is missing a column 'contentBytes' with a type of 'Blob'"

ForAll(
        fileAttachments.Attachments,
        'SPO-SmartTermsAdministration'.Run(
            {
                file: {
                    contentBytes: Value,
                    name: Name
                }
            },
            DataCardValue1.Text
        )
    );
 
Any ideas?
Thanks
P

Hi pmwhelan,

I just ran your code on a model using exactly the same controls and names and apart from the Text value being requested first (before the file), it ran perfectly (as expected) and stored three files in the Library, so there is nothing wrong with the code. I assume you are using the Power Apps V2 trigger in the Flow and applying the contentBytes as the content of the target file ?

In my case, what works is to send the file object directly (instead of sending it within file property). Like this:

ForAll(

fileAttachments.Attachments,

'SPO-SmartTermsAdministration'.Run(

{

contentBytes: Value,

name: Name

},

DataCardValue1.Text

)

);

Let me know how it goes
