flow fails at email notification

First, I'm no programmer and have only managed to get my Form to Excel working thanks to youtube.  But it's failing on my final step, which is the email notification. I don't know why and would love some assistance.

    @cenfield 

    Are you adding an attachment to the email body?

    Can you show the error message on the failed step?

    No attachment, just spreadsheet fields within the subject/body. 

     

    Error details: An action failed. No dependent actions succeeded.

     

     

    This is the raw data of the body.

     

    {
        "statusCode"401,
        "headers": {
            "Date""Tue, 28 Dec 2021 22:36:13 GMT",
            "Content-Length""220"
        },
        "body": {
            "$content-type""application/octet-stream",
            "$content""VGhlIE1haWwgY29ubmVjdG9yIGlzIGN1cnJlbnRseSByZXN0cmljdGVkIGZvciBuZXcgdGVuYW50cy4gTWljcm9zb2Z0IGlzIHdvcmtpbmcgb24gZW5hYmxpbmcgdGhpcyBjb25uZWN0b3IuIEluIHRoZSBtZWFudGltZSwgcGxlYXNlIGNvbnNpZGVyIHVzaW5nIGFsdGVybmF0aXZlcyBsaWtlIE9mZmljZSAzNjUgT3V0bG9vaywgR21haWwsIFNlbmRHcmlkIGNvbm5lY3RvciBpbnN0ZWFkLg=="

    Hi @cenfield ,

     

    The 401 error usually means that the user does not have access rights and needs to be authenticated.

    So, please contact your administrator to troubleshoot this problem.

     

    Best Regards,

    Wearsky

    Thanks. Got it solved. Apparently I used an Outlook command vs a MS365 command
