Hi All

I'm having an issue with my flow which is working fine right upto 'When file is created in folder trigger which i have had running in my flow for over an hour!

Here is my flow

Capture11.JPGCapture12.JPG

 

The left hand Send email has the outputted PDF file as an attachment using Sharepoint Filename/FileContent.

 

I have rebuilt it a few times but still have the same issue!

I have even put a Delay after Create File 2 but that doesn't help

 

Any Help appreciated

Gary

    Triggers should be the first action in a Flow.  I don't think you can expect a trigger to work if you embed it in the middle of the Flow.  Either break this Flow into multiple Flows, one with When an Item is created and another when a file is created in a folder. Or you could do a Get File for the Create File 2 action to get the file once it is created.
