Store Attachments from Outlook EXCLUDING Icons

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 133

Hi!

 

I am trying to store all attachments from my current Outlook inbox. I made a simple flow of Launch Outlook, Retrieve email messages from Outlook (Save attachments), and Close Outlook. However, it's also storing icons/images next to people's signature. Is there a way to only store actual attachments? 

 

Thanks!

    No, not really, because those images are also considered as attachments. If you are absolutely sure that you will not have attachments of type image as "real" attachments, you can build a loop that deletes image files after you've saved them all. That's essentially the only way.

    Hi @Json123 

     

    Yes, with the current action, we are unable to filter those attachments, but check the pattern for the filename you are getting, if that is like image00 then after saving the attachment you put a loop to delete the files which have image00 else as @Agnius said if you don't have attachments of image then you can delete those with images
