Posted on by SnehaBhadrige11
  • Once we are having any attachments field in power apps and as tester if we want to validate the attachment field and to get the count how many files are attached how we can create any flow or which action will help us to get the count of files and to verify it how many files is supported and max size of file 


Is it supported this attachment field in desktop power automate??

  • The main challenge is while creating flow once we click on attach its redirecting to local drive/one drive and we want to select a file then how we can automate is it possible?

    You can use extract data from web page and then you can get the value Attachments(0)

    then by using regex you can extract the number beside attachments using parse text activity.

    the regex pattern is  (?<=Attachments\().*\d{1,}

     

    Hope this helps,

    Usha.
