Posted on by 28

Hi All,

I am new to Power Automate and trying to achieve something for my client. At very first step, save the outlook attachments into OneDrive. I am happy that I can able to complete the first step but at the same time also needs to save the existing outlook attachments into the same folder. I can achieve only when a new email arrives, Can anyone help me how to save outlook attachments for already received email also.

Thanks in advance

    @ArunkumarK You can have a scheduled flow or a flow which can be triggered manually and then get emails as required.

    Apologies for any miscommunication. Already i have achieved for the new emails received using the automate work flow and now i am looking to save the existing email attachments before power automate development or unread email.

    Is there anything similar to new email arrives for existing email or any conditions to add here?

    @ArunkumarK Like I said earlier, scheduled flow or manual flow and to get existing emails try Get emails,  Export emails, Move emails whichever suits you.

    @jinivthakkar Sorry, i was misunderstood with your first reply. I thought get email is a generic word thereafter realized get email, move email etc., is a function in power automate. I performed something as you suggested and got the below error.
