Create File in SharePoint - Corrupt File

[Hugo-Aegon]

Hi,

I've got a Power Automate flow that takes a new email and saves it to sharepoint, the location depending on what is in the subject line.

The Flow recently started creating corrupt files. I've tried several fixes that I found on other posts, including adding Get Attachements v2 and adding a function (Solved: Create file on Sharepoint creates empty files - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com) but nothing fixes the issue.

The Create File action seems to iterate 7 times, each time creating a smaller and smaller file, but there are no other attachments in the email. Anyone got any advice?

Everything should be within that "Apply to each 2" container. And when you move the steps into the "Apply to each 2" container, delete the "Apply to each 5" container since it shouldn't exist.

The steps that are in the the "Apply to each 2" container will run on the individual attachments. Right now you have your actions outside of the "Apply to each 2".

Hi,

I only amended that in my frustration to try and get it to work. It used to look like this.

Do you mean that my first action should be "Apply to Each" and then the "When a New Email Arrives"? I don't quite follow

Brilliant! That seemed to work thank you. I think this issue was compounding with an issue related to signature images in the emails (hence the multiple create files, with the last being very small). I managed to add a condition to filter those out too.

Thanks!
