Getting Activity.Attachments file name and extension from Copilot Studio bot / agent

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by llyrjones 13
Hello,
 
Has anyone had any luck extracting the actual file name from the Activity.Attachments table in Copilot Studio?
 
I can get the file content to save into SharePoint easily via something like this;
 
Set variable "Attachment" as Index(Activity.Attachments, 1)
 
I can then use the "Create file" connector and save the File Content using "Topic.Attachment.Value".
 
However, I can't find anyway to get the Topic.Attachment.Name at all. What also confuses me is that the file name is displayed in the bot when you upload it;
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Is there a way to extract "Text File.xlsx" from the Activity.Attachments table at all? Without this, the file is saved without it's original name or extension.
 
Thanks

    Hello,
     
    this feature is still in preview, as you can see it's not ready yet. Let's wait a bit!
     
    In case of any other questions, let me know. If the answer helped you, mark it, so that others can benefit from it.
