Cannot Open Attachment/s from 'send_an_email_with_option'

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 158

I have successfully sent an Attachment using Power Automate, the problem is the Attachments that are sent cannot be viewed and even if it is downloaded it doesn't show anything.

 

These are the Blocks that I've used.

This is the Block where I am attaching the Attachment to the Email.

    Hi @Intoxicated 

     

    Pls check if you are able to open the pdfs directly from SharePoint list items.

     

    If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.

    I can open it without any issue.

    will reply once tested. but as I think about your Block, it might be for just one attachment. Mine was for multiple attachment.

     

    But we'll see.
