Exclude Image Attachments from Extract

Posted on by mty

Hi All. Have just started using Automate and am trying to build a flow to upload to SharePoint. I have a "When a New Email Arrives" trigger with attachments, an action begins using an AI Model to extract information from documents, then take two tags from that extract to name the file.

Let's assume tag 1 is "Customer" and tag 2 is "Carton Number." I have the Trigger and actions configured fine and am seeing the desirable result, however an issue I am facing is that the image from the organisation Signature is detecting and is also uploading to SharePoint.

The expected result of "Customer" and "Carton Number" is always numbers, never letters. How can I prevent my flow from extracting the Signature Attachment? Is it possible to exclude results that include letters, seeing as though I am only expecting a return of Numbers?

Thank Team.

Hi @mty

You could exclude the inline attachments like signature image by testing "inline" property of an attachment. To do this, pls add a condition action inside the loop as shown below. Choose "Attachments Is inline" property from the dynamic content:

For the right-side operand, write an expression in the expression box:

Expression used in the above screenshot:

true

As we have set the condition to test if the image is not inline so next actions should be added in the "Yes" block of the condition action.

If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.

Thanks

Thanks @ManishSolanki. I misinterpreted the use of the Inline dynamic expression. I kept putting the condition as "is equal to" with the next action in the yes option. Thanks for explaining Manish.
