Email newly created files

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello all, 

 

I've created an automated desktop flow that upon Outlook email attachment a flow is triggered that splits the document by page and saves as separate files. However, I now want each newly-created one-page file to be emailed to me individually through Outlook. Is there a way to do this? The two flows I have tried have triggered an email to be sent to me with all six new files, and another attempt sent me six separate emails, but with an increasing amount of attachments each time.

 

I've attached my flow for splitting the document so if anyone has any idea how/where to add a step for these emails that would be so greatly appreciated!

    The following flow iterates through the PDF, extracting each page with a unique file name.

     

    I also create a data table, FilesCreated.

     

    You could attach the files in the IF action (note comment) or afterward by iterating through the FilesCreated data table.

     

    I have a video example of this working here. You can download the flow text file here.

    All you need to do is add the Send email message through Outlook action here, after you've extracted your page file:

    Use %ExtractedPDF% as the attachment file when sending the email.
