When item or file is modified- attach and send it in an email

Posted on by Mike44 266
I'm trying to build a flow that when a file is modified in a SharePoint folder, that document is then attached and sent in an email.  I'm not which dynamic content to add so it gets the right file.  Below is a screen shot.  I don't know which dynamic content to add to the File Identifier.  I've tried 'File name with extension' and even manually typed in the folder path /Shared Documents/Staff Emergency Info/ and then added dynamic content 'File name with extension'.  Both failed.  Any help is appreciated.

    It could be an alternative solution, but not exactly what I'm trying to accomplish.  I was able to solve it myself with the help of ChatGPT.  Below is my solution.
