Email only 1 attachment from Sharepoint list based on file name

Posted on by cmaly

I have a Sharepoint list where items can have multiple attachments. I have a flow that works successfully that sends an email when a certain field in the Sharepoint list is changed. However, it sends ALL of the file attachments that are on that Sharepoint list item in the email. What I want is for it to only send the file attachment that has "DRAFT" in its file name. Currently I have my AttachmentArray variable in the Attachments field in the Send an email component which sends all of the attachments. Below is a snippet of my current flow.

I have tried what I thought would work, as well as a few different things I found on posts but I have not been successful. Does anyone have any tips so that not all attachments are sent, just the one that I want?

Hi

I am assuming that your first For Each is looping through the Attachments of the Item??

If so, then inside of it, dont get the Content

First put a condition

left side = the DisplayName dynamic property

middle = contains

right side = whatever string you want (hard code it, make it environment variable whatever)

Inside the yes, add it to your Array

otherwise skip the rest

Cheers,

FLMike thanks so much for your quick reply. I was able to try it out tonight and that was exactly what I needed. I was obvioulsy putting my condition in the wrong spot in all of my trial and errors. Much appreciated!!
