Sharepoint Attachment Issue

Can someone help me with this flow?  It was working flawlessly, until I added the ability for users to add attachments in the PowerApp.  The Has Attachments is coming back false, when there are attachments.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Re: Sharepoint Attachment Issue

    @Shaguar357 Since your flow is using the When a New Item is created trigger, I believe your item is being created first via PowerApps and attachments are being added after the fact.

     

    I'm not exactly sure on your PowerApp workflow so it's hard to provided specific recommendations. However, if you are expecting users to add attachments upon creating an item, you may need to add a delay or a Do Until loop to check for an attachment. 

     

    To include SP List attachments in your email you do need a Get Attachments action. I cover how to add attachments from a SP List in this YT Tutorial: How to Send SharePoint List Attachments đź“Ž via Email with Power Automate

    In this Microsoft Power Automate tutorial, I’ll cover how to create a Power Automate flow to send SharePoint list attachments in an email.

     

    This flow will check the SharePoint list to see if an item is marked as Ready to Send and has attachments. I will also cover how to combine multiple attachments to send in a single email.

    @Shaguar357 Can you show a screenshot of your full flow. It would help to see a full picture.
