I am stuck!
I am taking Screenshot from a webpage on hourly basis and now I need to auto send those Screenshots in Mail Body to Email ID, but couldn't find a way in Power Automate Desktop. Requesting Help, please suggest a way
 
Process flow: 
 
Start – Open URL – Browse KPI Dashboard – Take Screenshot - Add in Mail Body– Send mail – End

    Hi,
     
    I have a flow that does this exactly.  Here I am opening up a DoorDash account and sending a couple of screenshots in an account by email.  So the desktop flow takes the screenshots and saves them to OneDrive for Business.
     
    Then the cloud flow that launches the desktop flow, sends out the email after the desktop flow ends, shown below.  So I am using Get file content using path for two different screenshots, then using two separate composes to format the dataURI.
     
    dataUri(body('Get_file_content_using_path'))
     
     
    Works great!
     
    The key here is you have to capture the path of the screenshots in your desktop flow as an output variable so you can use it in your Get file content using path action, shown below.
