Posted on by clayton1421

Hello,

I am currently trying to set up a flow to automatically email an Excel online file as an attachment from my OneDrive at 8 pm every night to 5 email addresses. How would I do this? The file needs to be in my OneDrive not SharePoint.

AS long as you know the location of the file in OneDrive you can easily create a recurrence triggered flow to send the file out by email to the 5 people each night.

Recurrence Trigger set for 8 PM daily

One Drive Get File action

OneDrive Get File Content action

Outlook Send Email action - Attach the file name from #2 and the content from #3

Hey, I tried to follow your steps but it is not working once the email comes through, I tried 3 different email clients. myMail app, outlook app and outlook desktop on chrome.

it keeps saying the file format is not supported.

see images below. What am I doing wrong?

The one thing I noticed is that you have some whitespace before the file content in the email. I would remove that and try again.
