Hi,

What's the purpose of my flow? Very simple for some... Complicated for me. I have a folder in my Outlook inbox. I make a loop on each mail, I create a folder and in it, I want to save the mail and the attachments.

For the attachments, no worries, they're saved and I can view them directly in the browser. However, the e-mails are always empty. Indeed, after execution, I see that the body is still null.
 
Can you tell me how to fix this? I'm using a French version and I see that in the Code, PowerAutomate mixes French ('corps') and English ('subject'). Is this the cause?
 
 
I welcome any good ideas you may have.

    I think the problem was that I was taking the body from Get email instead of Export email.
    Thanks to your image - it gave me an idea, I was able to solve my problem.

    Have a nice day,

    In the screenshot I don't see an Export Email (v2) action, are you using that in your setup?
     
    You need that to export the content. Matthew Devaney has a nice blog about this approach:
     
    Below is an example
