Send List Item Attachments in Flow

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 29

Hello, I am trying to create an approval workflow with the following steps:

 ---> when the user enters a new item into the SharePoint list and attaches their form in Attachments --> start and wait for an approval. 

I want to attach the form the creator had attached to their request in the approval notification, so I found some documentation on how to do that, but most of them seem outdated since Power Automate has updated many functions and some actions aren't even there anymore. I tried to do the following: when an item is created --> initialize variable --> get attachments --> apply to each (output was said to be put as 'Body' according to website) --> get attachment content --> append to array variable 

In the Value box for append to array variable, I tried entering this in as shown below:

However when I tried adding in that expression, it said to enter a valid json and wouldn't let me keep that. 

If anyone knows how I can send the attachments from the list item in the approval notification, please let me know this is quite urgent!
