Hi,

I would add to the condition and check the attachment type. This seems to filter out the email signature pretty good. Most of the time my flows are working with .xlsx, .doc, .pdf's.

Attachment name does not end with .png

I also have a couple of flows where I check the attachment file size, in cases where you are processing image attachments, this can filter out small files, such as email signatures.

Hi,

Try using the attachment file size then; it will allow all file types, and you can eliminate most email signatures.

Yes thats good idea but sometimes in email attachment we could have some important png files project related so how we can decide in this context. but if there are any other logic which could eliminate this issue. reason is that sometimes email attachment can contain small size project related png files too. Kindly advise

Please confirm you changed the dynamic content from 'Attachment Name' to 'Attachment Size'.
