Converting a docx to PDF and attaching to email

Posted on by 49

Hello all,

 

I tried so many things and I can't figure out the issue. I'm trying to attach a PDF file that came from a docx and for some reason everytime it comes back with an error saying that the content can't be null or empty. I'm attaching to this conversation my flow so you guys understand a bit better. So basically 1- I populate a Word with stuff I get back from a Microsoft Forms. 2- I create the docx in my OneDrive so that the next step convert it to a PDF (it couldn't do it if I didn't save it in my OneDrive). 3- Convert the docx to PDF. Then I tried 3 differents approach. 1- I tried Creating a file in my sharepoint and reading the content and then pass it to the email but that gave me the error same if I create a file in my OneDrive and then reading the content and try to attach that. 

 

I verified and the PDF is created in my sharepoint and my OneDrive correctly but I can't attach it to the email.

 

Thank you for the help.

    I found my problem. I was adding the word file and the PDF file. But for some reason the Word file that was fine a minute ago was my problem now. I had to delete my attachement and re-add it. 

     

    Problem solved. Now my Word AND my PDF is getting attached to my email
