How to get Get Attachment into power automate

I created one Sharepoint list and that list having attachment column. 

 

I need to get that attachment content and details when any items created or modified into list from power automate.

 

I tried some flow like "Get Attachment" or "Get File Content" etc. But I got the message file not found so please let me know the step by step for getting attached in power automate.

    Hi himanshue2logy,

     

    You need to store the attachment into an array variable and then use the variable for any subsequent action.

    "body" is from the "Get attachments" step.

    I hope this helps.

      How could you go about taking this and putting the attachment contents into, say for example, an email?

        Hi ewaterkotte,

        I think it's possible to do but the contents may not render as expected in an email message. It would be a safer bet to attach the file to the email.

        I hope this helps.
