Issue converting to PDF using MS Flow

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by leslie_rivera 373

I created a flow so when a word doc is submitted in this library it converts the file to PDF then sends an email with the pdf file as an attachment.

The flow works fine however some of the data in the word doc does not show on the pdf file. Any ideas on why this could be happening?

    Hi @leslie_rivera 

     

    Can you expand the actions and share a Screenshot? Please check if there is any static content on the file actions that might be referring to a base template or some other file and not selecting the new file dynamically. 

     

    It will also be good to add a 10-15 seconds delay between the convert file and create file actions. 

     

    Hope this Helps!
