Array variable not showing up as available to attach to email

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 241

I have a powerapps form that allows the user to add an attachment. This flow pulls the data that they've submitted and puts it into a table, and then forwards it to those who require the data. 

 

I found a guide suggesting that attachments need to be put into an array first, and then they can be added as an attachment to an email.

 

The problem is that the array variable does not display as an option under the Attachments Name or Attachments Content (I assume this is the correct option) sections.

    Hi @rsparks ,

     

    You need to click the "T" icon, then the type of this field will become array, then you can fill the array variable here.

     

    Best Regards,

    EDIT: Solved. Had to input body('Get_attachment_content').$content as an expression, not just as plaintext.

    I'm now getting another error. I don't understand, the 'To', 'Subject' and 'Body' fields clearly have data in them. What are the "required input parameters" that flow needs?
