- Hi Everyone,
In this video, I demonstrate how to save email attachments into a SharePoint document library using Power Automate. The Flow is simple to create and can save users a bunch of time if they receive multiple attachments in emails.

How does "File content" have to be structured in order to work? I've tried to pull the content from a OneDrive document into a SharePoint, but its ending up corrupt. Do you know how I set the content type within the file content, etc?
How do we save all the attachments in just one file using power automate?
How do we save all the attachments in just one excel file on share point using power automate?
I can see email attachments are getting saved in sharepoint locations, but but these attachments are saved without any content in it, can you please advise how do I solve this issue?
I have the same issue
TYhank you for this tutorial., it looks more complicated to understand the licenses than creating the flow. is this flow still within free tier?
Attachment is saved at sharepoint folder but it's encrypted S/Mime. How to save original Attachment? Any idea?
Hi, I’ve followed this step but the attachments saved in the SharedPoint are blank.. pls help 🥺
How do I send the excel attachment to SharePoint folder when received in email? I don't want to have the PNG file? Thanks
Hi alex,
Could you create the flow with receive email (outloook) - save email in to sharepoint with .eml and attachment. But new create folder with job number..
thanks
Does this work if this file would be overwriting a file of the same name in the share point?
I have an email with an Excel file. Power Automate grabed the email attachment by subject line, then forward to SharePoint.
However, when i go to SharePoint, it showing a file, but not an Excel file. When I click on it, it showing a 1KB file when it should be 8000 KB.
Just thinking, I would double check to make sure you have the correct Dynamic Content in the Flow.
@@michaelalex2322 Something definitely changed in Power Automate where this method in your tutorial does not work. The file it produces in SharePoint will now not have a format and can not be opened.
That attachment is not opening.
Did you ever find a solution to this?
How do you get it to stop overwriting the file that is already in the folder?
Is it possible for it to ignore email signature as attachments?
It is a little complicated but this is the simplest explanation I have seen.
Great video. Straight to the point! Thanks for sharing!
Any chance we could extract additional data from the email such as Date from the email to a metadat column? I would like to set up a flow for another user's email box which trigger would I use?
This was very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
You are so welcome!
Is Power Automate even still around in 2024?
@@broderp Use it everyday lol
OMFG I feel like I’m missing something so simple. I have like 30 pdf attachments each named SCAN. Why can’t I just open each pdf attachment and SAVE AS to the appropriate freakin SharePoint folder??? Each attachment has to be saved in a different SharePoint sub folder. I’ve got to look at the document before saving it to determine where it will go and what I will name it. 🤦♀️
Hi Michael thanks for the tutorial, it works perfect for me, just one question, how can I update the flow in order to replace an existing file in the SharePoint instead of creating a new one? Hope you can share any advice
On the "Create File" action, go to the settings tab, you will see a radio button called "allow chunking" (under the "Networking" section), you can turn that off and this will allow you to replace existing files. I am not sure what chunking does lol, but it works for me.
Thanks for the video! Can you demonstrate how to move Microsoft Lists file attachments to a specific SharePoint folder according to the characters contained in the file name? For example, a Microsoft Lists attachment has a file name that contains the word "blue" and another that contains the word "green." The SharePoint library has a folder titled "Blue" and a folder titled "Green." How would you use Power Automate to extract the Microsoft List attachments and place them in the corresponding SharePoint folders? Thanks!
Thank you! These instructions were very easy to understand.
I'd been trying to do this for a while and kept getting an error. I think the issue I was having was that I created a step before the "create file" step where I was trying to download the attachment before creating the file. If I'm understanding correctly it seems that trying to do that step was unnecessary?
Best and most concise instructions yet, excellent How-to. Thank you for sharing.
You're very welcome!
Can I put the email itself directly from outlook to share point?
Hi! Thanks for uploading this but for some reason, the Apply to Each selection is not coming for me when I choose Attachment name at 4:00
Hi Mike, great video! Simple steps to follow up! Really appreciate.
However, what can I do if the attachment with same name which I receive it once a month?
Any way it can replace the old one once I receive the new one? Thank you so much.
When I try to test it out it says "There are no runs for this flow".
Followed you right along, what could have happened?
Hi, how would you do this for all already existing emails in the mailbox?
Hi Michael, thank you for this helpful info. I created this flow but i only want to save PDF and XLS attachments not images how can i set this up please?
Thanks! A question though, I want to save attachments from a sender who has an image in their email signature. How do I make sure that that image is not saved (which is now the case if I follow these steps?) thanks!
Great video, but I got an error message when I tried it. Group Shard is used in non-Groups URI....
Hey man amazing video, bit of a tricky one. Would it be possible to somehow make a system that allows you to move the attachment to a specific folder within the library depending on one condition? For example, if email has been sent in January the attachment would go to the January folder, but if it is sent in March it will go to the march folder
This was very easy to follow and create. Thank you for making this. I do have one question, please. Is Power Automate able to create new folders from email subject lines? An example of that is I can create a folder in SharePoint and each day I receive an email with the subject line as: Monday status report, Tuesday status report, Wednesday status report, etc. Is Power Automate able create new folders each time with the subject line and then save the document into that folder?
Thanks. Do you know how I can run a flow across existing emails rather than new ones coming in . I want to do a clear up of some old email attachments but I can't get it to run across existing emails
excellent tutorial love it! keep up the good! work!
Nice video, question: In this case the flow would overwrite the attachment if the name is the same? I'm trying to create a flow than overwrites the daily report it is sent in a sharepoint folder.
Thx
trying to do the same :D have you been able to find something about that?
Have you figured it out? How do you do it?
Hey, you should go to the settings of the create file connect and turn the Content Transfer (Allow chunking) OFF. It worked for me at least
How do I converted PDF to image and attach it to a worksheet and rename worksheet as per attachment name...😢
This step might have to be manually done somehow lol. Unless there is an action in Power Automate to convert PDF -> JPEG or PNG
Excellent video! Simple and effective. It help me so much. Thanks!!
You're welcome!
Is there a way to do this by attachment name? My challenge is that all reports come out with the same subject so the only property to identify them is the attachment name
Attachment name should be available in the Dynamic Content so possibly
This works great but is there a way the whole email can be added to share point folder as a new subfolder. That way every email that is received is a subfolder in the share drive folder.
I'm not seeing a 'Create Folder' action in OneDrive, but there is one for SharePoint in Power Automate. You could add that to your Flow, but the Folder Name would most likely need to be unique for each one created.
Hello, so the flow only works for me when I "test" it .. I will receive the attachment but if I just send them email and dont "test" it wont show up. Any ideas?
It needs to go to the Inbox of whoever connection is attached to the action
@@michaelalex2322 it was showing up on its own just was taking around 3 min or more
So helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank for sharing!
You're welcome Gabriela!
thank you..
