How do I auto-save an Excel document attached to a Group email to a Sharepoint folder?
I have a report that is downloaded from a web app as a .xlsx file every morning at 1am. The application auto-emails the file as an attachment to an Outlook Group email box I have setup. I would like for this file to be automatically saved to a folder in Sharepoint when the email is received. Effectively, it would replace the file from the previous morning.
What is the best way to do this using Microsoft Tools?
- PowerAutomate for sure. But like you can see here you cannot use it on a group email. Maybe is better if you send it or simply forward to a shared mailbox and after that you can use power automate to do what you need. https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Saving-attachment-sent-to-Office-365-Group-to-a-SharePoint/m-p/241906#M23861
This is exactly what worked for me. PowerAutomate using a dedicated folder in my Outlook. Thank you for also confirming that it could not be done using a shared mailbox. That was the crux of my question.
