Attach a file in a mail. Trigger: for a selected item

I created a approvation flow with a trigger "for a selected item". I want to send an email after the approvation with the file as an attachment, but I don't find the way to insert the file in the email. I insert itemUrl in path of the file but the flow says "file not found 404". 

 

Please help, thank you

@alemango ,

You need to provide the Identifier (not itemUrl) in your action.

@SudeepGhatakNZ 

 

Using the action "Get file content using path" I think I must insert the url file, so ItemUrl.

 

Using the alternative action "Get file content" I insert the ID but it doesn't work.

 

Now I am trying to use the previous action "Get file properties" and it works but then the action Get file content with the Identifier doesn't...
