    To attach the file to action Send email (V2) - you need to convert the file to binary format, then attach it to the send email action.
     
    See below on how to do it
     
    1. Use find files in folder action
     
    2. Create a list variable which stores file attachments 
     
    3. Use for each loop to loop through each file 
     
    Below set of actions will be done under the loop
     
    3.1 - use convert file to binary data to convert the file content to binary format.
     
    3.2 Create a custom object which represent an attachment format to be attached as email attachment like below
     
    3.3 Use add item to list action to add the above custom object to Attachments list
     
     
    ---------------------Exit of loop----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    outside the loop - use the send email (V2) action by adding attachment variable
     
     
    You will finally see an email like below
     
     
    Hope it helps !
     

    Thanks & Regards,

    If the attachments are not in the same folder, you can assign their file paths to multiple variables, add those variables to a list, and then use that list as the attachments in the email before sending it. Alternatively, if the files are in the same folder, you can follow Nived_Nambiar solution.
     
    Solution Steps: 
     
    Step 1: Assign Multiple Variables with FilePath

     
     
     
     
    Step 2: Create a List Variable
     
     
     
     
    Step 3: Add File Paths to List by using Action 'Add item to List'
     
     
     
    Step 4: Pass that list variable to the attachments
