In Power Automate Desktop I need to send an email with several attachments, each represented by its respective variable.

 

I've been trying to list them in the "Attachment(s):" field separated by a semicolon as follows:

 

%PDF_file% ; %XL_file% 

 

The flow does not recognize multiple attachments when entered as variables.

 

Thanks in advance

    hi @WillSG is wrong. it dosen't work now.
     
    but i found the way finally lmao
     
    use "List" in power automate desktop. like this
    (image used korean but i prepared english explation below!!!!!!)
    before: set filepath as "value"(or variables) like file1path and file2path
    (example : file1path is "C:\Users\lsd612\Desktop\a\sample.jpg", file2path is "C:\Users\lsd612\Desktop\b\sample2.pdf")
     
    first : make new List(file_list)
    second: add value(file1path) to the list(file_list)
    third: add value(file2path) to the list(file_list)
     
    fouth(finally) : used list(file_list) as attached file path in "Send email"
    like this
     
     
    p.s. : i don't have english language pack now. images are will be chaged later.
    so i hope you understand mine. if you don't understand contact me sodamlee96@gmail.com

    Hi @legonzales1 I hope you are doing well.

    Here below you will find he correct way to do it.

    You need to put your variables between double quotes “” and add a space ( ) between each variable or file in this case that you need to attached.

     

    So basically, the attachement section of the send email action will end up like this:

     

    “%File1%” “%File2%” “%File3%” “%File4%” “%File5%” “%File6%”

     

    Hope this helps,
