Save email attachments from shared inbox to a SharePoint document library

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 3

I'm new to Power automate and am having difficulty building a flow. I want to save an email attachments from shared inbox to a SharePoint document folder.

I can find templates and training on how to  "save an email attachments  to a SharePoint document folder" and "save email from shared inbox to one business", but I can't find any other answers.

 

Can you please advise which template I should start with (I've tried both the above unsuccessfully) and what steps I need to adjust?

 

Perhaps there is an instructional video that I haven't been able to find yet?

    Hi @anniebith 

    According to your description, you want to save email attachments from shared inbox to a SharePoint document library.

    I set up a simple Flow, Please take a try with the following screenshots.

    Note:need to add the shared mailbox email address to the 'Original Mailbox Address' field 'Get Attachment' action.

    Thank you so much for your assistance. It has almost worked.  The flow triggered as it should, files were saved in the right SharePoint location, but only PNG and JPG images were saved to the SharePoint - not the PDF.

    The flow is as below:

    Is there a step I have missed please as I don't appear to have the same result as you?

    Hi @anniebith 

    Your Flow seems no problem.

    Please check the running results of your flow to see if the PDF file is included in the Get attachment.

    Click 'Next' can see all attachments's information .
