Hi Community 

Please help , any idea/pointer around the case will help me a lot. Thanks in advance.  

 

A document library from sharepoint has multiple subfolders and each subfolders has multiple files in it.

The trigger : A user submits a MS form which is choice of subfolder name and the file name inside the subfolder.

Based on selection chosen by User , the file from the matching subfolder is chosen and sends the file as email attachment to the user.

 

My flow :
