Having a lot of trouble trying to overwrite a csv file attached to an outlook email to go to a certain folder in my OneDrive.  I want the same folder each time and the same file name each time.  Thanks!

    Made it work - I had to drag it down below in the correct order.  All set

     

    Thank you very much for your help!

    @ChristianAbata It will not let me drag Condition anywhere or drag create and copy anywhere.  I'd hate to have to do that over again - I have screen shots in case I do need to.

    @Anonymous  the condition that we add just create a file and copy it when you receive .csv files, I you want to probe just send you an email with a csv file and then you get tru values.

    To get back just drag and drop the create file and copy file accions below the condition an then delete the condition accion.

     

    Please if any answer helps you mark as answer to guide others. 😄

    @ChristianAbata  either way it didn't download the file to the folder.  Whether it was Attachment Name or Attachment with contains or is equal to.  I think I will be ok to get rid of this because the email will be coming from Service Now and probably wont have any other file attached besides the .csv

     

    How do I get rid of the condition and not ruin anything else?  Thanks!

    @Anonymous please click on next, see the first one is false but using contains I'm sure the next if is csv is going to be true.

    @ChristianAbata  So now I am getting a success but it is not downloading the .csv file to the correct folder.  I changed it to "contains" .csv and then I tried Attachment instead of Attachment Name - still no file but a success.  Ideas?  Thanks!

    @ChristianAbata  Sorry to say I'm not surew how to place that condition where you did.  I tried a few times and now that I have a successful run, I'm terrified to mess it help.  Steps?  Thanks!
