Extract zip file from outlook into sharepoint folder

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hello all,

 

I am new to power automate and have read various posts thinking I have found a solution but nothing seems to work.

 

Essentially I receive an e-mail file (zip folder) not password protected 3 times a day.  I want to create a simple flow to extract the file when it arrives in my outlook inbox and to unzip the contents within sharepoint, each time overwriting the previous version - so I only have one stored file, always with the latest data.

When I try to test it is failing at the last point with the following error details:  

Unable to extract contents of file 'Shared Documents/GP reports/CurrentReceivablesAgingDetail.zip'.

Any support would be greatly appreciated.  I would also need to add a final step to remove the zipped folder, just leaving the unzipped file.

    Why do you need a variable?

    Why do you need "get file properties" and where do you get the information for this action since it is not inside the loop?

     

    I try to build what I think you need and it works:
