Email V3: Sending Attachments

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello! I have an attachment control with images (.jpg) which looks like the following:

At pressing the "Send" button, I would like to send an email with the attachments using the "Mail" Connector (since the Outlook 365 Connector is blocked in my environment). The code that I wrote looks like this:

As soon as I enter the line: {files:AddColumns(RenameColumns(DataCardValue18.Attachments, "Value", "ContentBytes"), "@odata.type", "")}, it gives me an error, saying: "Incompatible type. The 'files' column in the data source you´re updating expects a Blob type and you´re using a 'Table' type.".

How can I achieve this? I would to send the images with the "Mail" connector without using Flow (like the Office 365 Outlook connector...) Thank you!

Hi @Anonymous

The syntax you would use looks like this:

Mail.SendEmailV3("recipient@emil.com", "Enter the email title here", "Enter your email message here", false, { files:First(DataCardValue18.Attachments).Value, filenames:First(DataCardValue18.Attachments).DisplayName } )

Note that the mail connector supports the attachment of a single file only. There are more details in my post here.
