Sending an attachment from a newly created SP list as email attachment

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have a PowerApps app where users can create a new SP list item, with an attachment they get to upload. After clicking a button, I would like a Flow to start, which would retrieve this attachment and send it as an attachment by email to someone else, along with more of the newly created SP item's information.

 

The only part I can't get working is retrieving the attachment. If there is any way to achieve this, it would be highly appreciated.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    It seems you want to add the file as attachment in the email from the SharePoint list.

    I have made a flow for your scenario, please check it for a reference.

    Hi @v-zhos-msft ,

     

    I have the almost the exact same flow, but dyanimc content from "Get attachment content" doesn't appear on my "Send an email" action. Does it make a difference if I use a "Send an email with options" action?

     

    The only differences are that, since the users are making the inputs for the SP item through PowerApps (individual controls, not forms), I have set PowerApps to be the trigger of my flow. Next, I have a "Get Item" action, and then it is basically the same as your flow.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    Thanks for your feedback.

    You need move the 'Send email with options' into the 'Apply to each'.

    Please take a try.
