I have watched Shane and Raza's videos and I am missing something. I am simply trying to build a table of attachements in my Canvas App from a sharepoint list so that I can include the table in the Outlook sendemail function. Here is my code:

I only have 1 attachment per record, and the autosense shows .DisplayName, but you can see from the red squigly it doesn't recognize it when referenced like this.
Help!!

Hi @astrontelstar,

EDIT:

If you want to collect SP List attachments into a collection using theCollect function, I have made a test on my side, I am afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs within PowerApps currently.

Currently, we could only access the SP List item attachments within the Attachments control of a Edit form.

That's why you have this error like the name is not recgonized.

I paid someone on Fiverr to solve it for me. Turns out the solution was just to build the collection in a gallery showing the files to choose from and then send THAT collection to the sendemail component.

Collect(CollectedAttachments,
{Name:First(ThisItem.Attachments).DisplayName,ContentBytes:First(ThisItem.Attachments).Value})

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(
to_input.Text, // To address
First(Gallery1.Selected.Attachments).DisplayName, // Subject of the email
Body_input.Text, // Body of the email
{
From: from_input.Text, // From address
IsHtml:true,
Attachments: CollectedAttachments
}
)
