Posted on by Cjohnson20

Hi,

I have built a flow that when a button is hit in power apps sends all information about a project including attachments to the specified user. The issue I am currently having is in the email where this information is sent file are coming over corrupted.

Any ideas on how to correct this. The section of my flow where i get attachments is shown below. The items are then attached in the email as a variable.

Thank you

I have a flow that does the same thing and everything in yours looks right. One thing to check is what the actual value being passed to ContentBytes is in the array. It should be an object that contains a content type and content. I've seen cases where it only has the Content and not the content type. That will make it look like the file is corrupt.

Double check what "Body" you are using for the ContentBytes. It doesn't look like you are using the right dynamic content.
