Corrupted excel file attachment

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 9

Hello,

 

I tried creating a flow where for every new mail with attachment, the file will be saved to OneDrive for Business.

It's saving the excel file but the file contents is different from what is on the excel file.  The excel file content becomes a big long text instead of showing rows and columns.

 

Below is the a screen shot of my flow in the portion where it creates the file.

Thanks and regards.

    Issue was resolved when I used the existing template "Save Office 365 email attachments to OneDrive for Business".
