Copying multiple attachments from one SP list to another list

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have an approval Flow that once certain conditions are met in a SharePoint list, it copies the list item and attachments to another list.  The issue I'm running into is the Flow creates one item in the second list for each attachment.  For example, if the first list has two attachments, two items are created in the second list, one for each attachment.  What I want it to do is create one item in the second list with all attachments from the corresponding item in the first list.  Note that this Flow works perfectly when there's just one attachment.  I'm wondering if there's something I can add to get it to do what I want it to do.

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Please move the Create item in list B (destination list) action out of the Apply to each action. Then it will create only one item in list B with multiple attachments when you copy the item in list A.

     

    There is a similar post write by mine, the steps you can refer to:
