I have created a flow that if a sharepoint list item has an attachment it will get the attachment, create a new list item in different list, add the attachment to new list item, and generate an email with the attachment. Everything is working except, the attachment in the email is currupted. How is this resolved?

My flow just start acting the same way with corrupted pdfs. I have a flow that pull the pdf attachment from one list and gets added on to the next. It was working flawlessly for about a year and now suddenly all the files that gets saved over are corrupted and can't open. It's seems the file size is reduced to 4mb, making it corrupt. Anyone has any insight?
Hi @Anonymous
It might have worked for you. The actual issue is file sharing and security.
Late last year, there was a security update on how file importing is to be done in SharePoint. Files cannot be shared publicly but there must be a specific audience to whom it can be shared. This needs to be made aware to the users to this application.
In short share with Everyone.
All I am trying to do is when a new item in a list is created, send the attachment for that item in an email.
I have the same issue and cannot open the attachment. It says file may be corrupt regardless of file type. Is there any resolution to this?

My flow runs, but the attachment in the email is corrupted. Can you open your attachment in your email?
Hi @Anonymous,
Could you please share a screenshot of the configuration of your flow?
I have made a test on my side and don't have the issue that you mentioned.
The screenshot of my flow as below:
The flow would run successfully as below:
The received email as below:
