Saving Email Attachments to Network Drive

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
Hello,
 
I'm attempting to build a flow that retrieves an Excel file attached to a regularly scheduled email and saves it to a network drive.  I've already installed a personal data gateway.  When the flow runs, it creates a 1 KB file that, when opened, presents a format/extension error.  I'm assuming this must have something to do with encoding the file, as the same flow works perfectly when retrieving attachments and saving them to SharePoint or OneDrive.  The flow itself is extremely simple and all settings are correct inside the trigger insofar as attachments are being passed to the next step.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Shouldn't that say "Attachment name"?
    Can you please share the output of the trigger

    I've updated the File Name to Attachments Name, but would that have any bearing on the results?  That's just what I want to name the file, correct?
     
    Here's the output of the trigger from the flow -
