Differentiating between email attachments and embedded images in Power Automate can be challenging because both types of content are often included in the same data structure.

Check the output of the trigger to see if there is a specific attribute you can target (like MIME type).

The JSON output you shared doesn't distinguish between attachments and embedded images. To keep things simple, consider downloading all images and advising users to disregard any embedded images or logos they don’t need.

Hi

Good Day!!

Below message well noted.

Please note that ignoring the image file is not feasible bcoz this will create a line in the below table. So deleting the lines become a task. So any cost I need to restrict the images. Please share if you have any suggestion.

Please find below the PDF file creation Json data. So the files shall retrieve to the SharePoint folder are Images and PDF files. Need to restrict the image files.

If all your attachments are PDFs, it's easy to skip over image files. However, the challenge arises when you have images as attachments, as it becomes difficult to distinguish them from embedded images within the content.
