Send MULTIPLES Attachements in one email having both (Different attachments) in one folder

Posted on by GabrielAgil

Hello ,

I am trying to create an email that goes to different people with two different attachments(PDFs), one is an overview and the one is a list. I have all the files in the same folders but when I run the flow, I only get 1 of the attachments. I am not quite sure how to set up the Excel file to look for the attachments, I initially have it one row per Attachment

and then I have it as one attachment column with 2 rows per person

Also, how I successfully identify the 2 individual attachments so I get both on the email for the right person

the condition is attachment_1 = Display name

how can you capture the content of the second File?

thank you

Hello @GabrielAgil ,

it's the loop over attachment you have in your flow - if you have a loop it'll process the attachments one by one and do all the actions in the loop for each of the files separately. If you have multiple attachments you must pre-prepare them into an array before you send the email.

The second point, filtering the attachments, use the 'Filter array' action after 'List files in folder', that way you can 'List...' all files, 'Filter...' only the relevant ones, create the array with the attachments as mentioned above, and send the email.

thank you for your response,

However, I am still not able to understand how the second PDF 'LISTNAME2.pdf" will be identified on the flow.
I successfully was able to capture the content of attachment 1 "SummaryName1" for NAME1, but I can't get the second pdf "LISTNAME1.pdf"

Hello @GabrielAgil ,

you can use a composed filter to search for multiple files in the 'Filter array' action, e.g.

@or(equals(item()?['Name'], 'File1.pdf'),equals(item()?['Name'], 'File2.pdf'))

Re: Send MULTIPLES Attachements in one email having both (Different attachments) in one folder

Apologize, but I am afraid that we are not understanding each other. I am trying to create a flow like in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ku0NM9jhp-A&t=271s&ab_channel=LeilaGharani

but with attachment 1 and attachment 2 I have the files. I am able to recreate the same logic for attachment 1 but I am finding no answers to get the content of the attachment 2 for the correct email.

please provide some insights
