Download Attachment attached as Shared Link
We have an annual review process where each associate attaches and submits a completed PDF form via email. The Flow saves the attached file to a SPO Document Library. However, if the attachment are a "Shared Link" instead of an uploaded attachment the Flow is not saving these attachments.
The Flow is triggered by an Outlook "On new email" event;
A reply is sent to sender;
A delay is applied to wait for our security scan to release the file;
The file is saved to Document Library.
How can I get these "Shared Link" attachments to download?

Mike_Vitale We ended up parsing the email to get the link to the file and then download that file directly from the link.
Here's a blog post that will walk you through this process: Power Automate: How to download a file from a link? - Manuel T. Gomes (manueltgomes.com)
