Including email attachment in Outlook Task

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi, 

 

I'm looking to create a workflow that does the following automation: 

 

1. When received an email (with & without attachment, e.g. an excel file), automatically create an Outlook task

 

2. In the task, include the body preview AND the attachment itself

I am able to have the body preview in the task but always fail to include the attachment in the original email. I'd highly appreciate if anyone can provide some feedback & suggestions on how to resolve this.

 

Thanks a lot in advance! (:

    Hi @t-alec ,

     

    Thanks for feedback.

     

    I am afraid that it is a feature that has not supported. We are currently not able to add email attachment in Outlook Task.

     

    If you need this feature, please feel free submit your request on Flow Ideas Forum at here:

    Best regards,
