Updated Sharepoint Excel File is not included as an attachment in Email (pre-update file is attached)

I am trying to create a flow where information from a Form (the trigger) is entered into an excel sheet stored in Sharepoint, then that edited Excel sheet is included as an attachment in an email.

The problem is the attached Excel sheet in the email is the sheet prior to the added row (even though this step is after the row update).

Is there a way to 'close' the excel sheet in sharepoint after the new row has been added but before moving on to including it as an attachment?

Can you try adding a delay of 2 minutes after the Add a row action and before the Send an email action? Sometimes Excel takes a while to update correctly.

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried that (initially tried 30 seconds, then 2 minutes and even 5 minutes).
I've also tried checking the document out and then back in and even copying the file with the new file content, but they're all blank.
