Sending files uploaded to Microsoft Forms response via email in Outlook. Flow fails if the file is a Word or Excel document but is successful for PDF or image files.

Below is the overview of the Flow I set up using this tutorial. It works if a PDF or image file is attached, but fails if a Word or Excel document, or no document is attached.

Below is the expanded view of some of the steps above:

When a Word or Excel document is uploaded, it fails at 'Get file content using path' saying the file is not found. I can see that the file is indeed in the SharePoint site. Any ideas on how to solve this?

    In one of your runs, can you take a look at the Name output of the Get file content using path action.  Does it include the file extension for all of the file types?
