Email attachment to Dropbox. Test is successful - But no attachment appearing in Dropbox. Why?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

This seems to be a really simple flow, however I can't seem to get the email attachments to be sent to dropbox.

Please see the screenshots here to see the flow:

I can run the test at the end and its successful. The outputs state it can see the attachement and the most recent email from the Outlook part of the flow. On the Dropbox part of the flow It has a green tick but I can't review any of the outputs from it. I'm not sure if that is normal behavior or not?

What am I doing wrong here?

    Have you tried the Save email attachments to Dropbox template? I believe that is what you are using but I want to make sure. As you can see by my screenshot of this template below, the File name and File content for the Dropbox step are dynamically created. Have you tired using the dynamic naming with the Attachment name parameter? Your issue may be the hard-coded test.csv file name.

    AttachmentsToDropbox.PNGOutside of that, as @v-alzhan-msft requested, the full run history of the Flow would provide some insight as well.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    Could you please take a try to enter the Attachment Name dynamic content in the File Name field?
