Send email with PDF attachment from SharePoint Library

Posted on by Bonniedog2

I've built a flow that creates a list item from a PowerApp, populates a Word template, converts this to a PDF (this all works OK).

I want the next step to attach this PDF to an email using Send an email (V2). I did have this working but now can't work out the correct fields to add into the 'Attachments' section to have it attach correctly. The email sends OK and does attach what looks like a PDF but won't open. Any help would be great.

Thanks for the response. My flow creates a Word doc in a SharePoint Library and then converts it to a PDF in the same library. This works OK - I see both docs in the Library (this PDF opens correctly). In the 'Content' field of 'Attachments' I've used dynamic content 'body/Id' which attaches what looks like a PDF but when trying to open Reader, comes up with an error - 'can't open, may be damaged (emailed and wasn't correctly decoded)'. I wan't to keep the flow as is, but need to put the correct details in the 'Content' field. Thanks
