Blank PDF into email attachments

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 22

Hi Everyone,
When I receive the attachment in my email, it's a blank PDF. I have attached the steps and content from the email that I have added. Could anyone help me fix this issue, please? I created a form, and responses are dynamically added into the document, which is then converted into a PDF and saved in OneDrive. Afterward, it's saved into a SharePoint private channel. However, when the PDF is received in the email, it's blank. Is there anything that I have missed or need to add? I am new to Power Automate, so I need an elaborate answer, please.

    Hi @Nishant2051 ,

    Please recreate the flow and switch to classic designer.

    I did a test for your reference.

    In my scenario:

    Do you suggest editing the existing flow or creating a new one? Currently, my flow is set up to capture responses submitted in the forms, dynamically adding them to a Word document, converting it into a PDF, and saving it in my OneDrive. Then, it creates a file in SharePoint and attaches the PDF to an email. However, the attached PDF in the email arrives blank. I only want the PDF from SharePoint to be sent in the email. How can I resolve this issue?

    Hi @Nishant2051 ï¼Œ

    I suggest you recreate the flow and then go to the classic designer page to build the flow configuration.

    Hi @Nishant2051 ,

    Please don't switch to the classic designer on the existing flow.

    Please create a new flow, at the beginning of building the flow, switch to the classic designer.

    After the When a new response is submitted trigger, you can configure it according to your original flow.

    And your attachment shows blank problem, it should be a bug of the new designer, he destroys the content of your attachment.
