Power Automate Creates Corrupt SharePoint file

Posted on by MarharytaHatsuk

I have a flow which saves the attachments - XLSX or CSV files - to the mail as it is in SharePoint folder. The name of the attachment can be used as files should be rewritten over time. Now all files are created corrupted, therefore cant be open.

The problem is that formats of files attached and files created are the same.

Hello there) Have found the solution already.
The additional step should be introduced Get Attachments. With this everything works.

There is also other solution proposed with base64ToBinary () expression, but it didn`t work for me. However you can find more here: How to avoid corrupt email attachment in Power Automate (tomriha.com)

Ok, I followed the URL MarharytaHatsuk sent and added the "Add ‘Get attachment’ action" and everything is working now.
