I have build a flow using the template to save new email attachments to a SharePoint document library. The flow runs successfully when I receive a new email in my box and uploads the file to the document library but when I select the csv file in the document library it is null and file size is 4 bytes. I have lost the contents of the csv file. Do you know what I am missing.

On new email attachment, I have specified the email inbox folder, Include attachments = Yes, Only with attachment = Yes.

Hi there,

This issue might occur if your email contains any email signatures. To resolve this, modify the File Name property in your Create File action by using dynamic fields. This will prevent the system from mistakenly treating an image file as a CSV.

Hi,
I've solved my problem converting from base64 To String before "create file" action.
My .CSV file didn't came in blank to sharepoint, but came like an encrypted file.

add "compose" then use the function "base64ToString" on "Attachment content", example: base64ToString(item()?['contentBytes'])

use the output on File content on "Create fie"
