    Attachment is not saving with full size.
    It's hard to offer any specific recommendations without seeing your full flow and the logic behind it. If you are using the new designer, toggle it off and click each action to expand it. Upload a screenshot of your flow in edit mode.
     
    In the meantime you might be interested in this YT Tutorial:
     
    Save Email Attachments to SharePoint with Microsoft Power Automate
    Power Automate doesn’t have a download attachment from outlook action. In this Power Automate Video tutorial, I’ll show you how to use the Get Attachment (V2) action in combination with the Create File action to get your email attachments onto SharePoint.
    The Create File action will overwrite any files that already exist with the same name. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how you can append a timestamp to the end of a file name to prevent your file from being overwritten.

    I’ll also show you how to set up your flow so that you can trigger it manually while building it so you don’t need to wait for an email to arrive. At the end of the video I’ll show you how adding trigger conditions to your flow can prevent it from triggering if certain conditions aren’t met. Although the final flow uses the When a new email arrives in a shared mailbox (V2) trigger, you can use any of the When a new email arrives triggers for your flow. Adjust this flow to suit your needs!

    If you still run into issues while building your flow, share screenshots of your full flow and the logic behind it. 

    Upload a screenshot of your flow in edit mode. If you are using the new designer, toggle it off and click each action to expand it.
     
    Hope this helps!
