Posted on by saibal_78 4

Hi All,

I am trying to extract the pdf file which comes as email attachment and then rename the file with a specific text from the body of the email and finally save the file as pdf on sharepoint. All process seem to be working fine and I can see a file created on sharepoint with the name I wanted, however when I open the pdf file it doesn't show any content and throws an error.

 

Below is my flow along with the error, am I missing any step in between? any help is appreciated.
