Hi All,

 

please help for resolve this,

 

I had setting Power platform attachment to 15mb, no error in Start and wait approval msflow. But attachment missing if attach file size more than 5mb, if less than 5mb, attachment file will showing.

if using "send an email (v2)" attachment big size will showing in email.

 

Are there other solutions to "start and wait approval" for the attachment file big size can appear ?

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2015/04/15/office-365-now-supports-larger-email-m...

    and . But solution not solved, still missing attachment in Start and wait approval email if greater than 5 mb file size.

     

    I don't get an error on "start and wait approval" like below , this issue resolved after setting attachment in Power Platform administrator.
