Sending a PDF file as an email attachment with Power Automate corrupts attachment
I have followed this great tutorial for creating and sending digital certificates to event participants (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/educator-developer-blog/send-digital-certificate-to-event-participants-in-8-easy-steps/ba-p/3697139), and everything worked except for the last step which is sending the email with the certificate attached. I am able to receive an email with the pdf attached however, the file is corrupted and I'm unable to open it. When I check the pdf file in my share point it is not corrupted so the issue seems to be in the step of sending the email. I tried using base64ToBinary(base64(body('Convert_file'))), when I added this I was able to open the pdf attachment but the pdf was empty and the content was erased. Please let me know if there is any way to overcome this issue.
SharePoint/Power Automate Issue
I am the IT Manager for a small business. I was told that SharePoint can be used as a ticketing system, if set up properly. I have actually gotten it to work, but here is the issue. We have 2 email domains, one is MSI and the other is @asc*. When I send an email to the latter, it works but if I send it from an msi email, it does not work at all. Is there a setting or something someone can point me to or do I somehow have to make 2 different flows in order to get this to work. Any help is appreciated Don Murray
Power Automate: SP Get items - filter by date return no values
Hello all, I'm trying to get entries in a SP list based on the date in one of the columns (FinalizedDate) For examples, the first three entries: I've set-up my query like this: However, the above "Get items" return 0 results. If instead I put FinalizedDate eq '2025-01-28' then it's returning a lot of matches, so the name of the column is right in the query filter. I thought it might be some kind of time-zone difference between Power Automate and the SP list so I tried "2025-01-29" and "2025-01-30" but both are also returning no result. What am I missing here? Why doesn't it return any value?
Create a Survey
I'm creating a survey for HR that will have 4 time periods (7 Day, 30 Day, 60 Day and 90 Day). My initial plan is to have the questions in a separate list and store the ratings for each of those questions with the Employee's Name in a separate list. I'm trying to figure out the best way to accomplish this.Flow Action - Convert Word Document to PDF
I'm trying to use the Convert Word Document to PDF action in a Flow. There are three parameters that have to be entered: Location - the SharePoint Site Document Library - Library where the document is located. File - The document to convert The parameter that I'm having an issue with is the File. The flow works if I choose the specific document from the library but I want it to be dynamic so that when the user starts a Flow on the document it will convert that one, so I don't want to hardcode the document name. For the File property I'm using the property from a previous step with the file name called File name with extension. When I run the flow I get an error, "There was an error accessing the file. Please try again or select a different file." Can I not use dynamic content for the File property? Thanks
