Hi, I'm trying to retrieve an email attachment and rename the file, but I'm getting stuck trying to rename. The ending of the file name changes daily. It will save fine in the folder but nothing happens to the name. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Try %RetreivedEmails[0].Attachments[0]%

Retreived Emails is a list, so [0] is the first email.

.Attachements is a property of an email which I believe is also a list, so [0] is the first attachment...if it doesn't work, try taking off the second [0].

Good luck!

That worked perfectly, thanks so much!

If I want to do the same thing for a different email would I have to create a whole new flow or could I just continue in the same flow?

If you can pull both emails in to RetrievedEmails, then you can say:

for each %retrievedemails%

%CurrentItem.Attachments% is now per email.
