    Could you please show me the setting of "Append to array"? Or you can try this first:

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    There are some differences between approval and email attachments.

    I suggest you create another variable which use "name" and "content" and put it in approval attachments.

     

    Best regards,

    Rimmon
