Save a file with the same name as a old one

Posted on by

Hello everyone! I am a new guy in Power Automate, and I must get a project done for my thesis 
So basically, i created and excel file (my data base) and this excel file search information in other excel files to fulfill its spreadsheet, by using some excel macros.
Those excel files are always changing information because of the entries and exists of the organization. For that reason the information must be always updated, so a new email is arriving everyday with those excel files. I want to save those, with the same names of the previous files because my excel macros depend on that to work properly. 
How can i do it? I tried a basic flow, that create a file with the same name when a new email arrives, but it is not saving the new file as it was supposed to, it keeps the old one, and i don't want that
