Attachment Auto Email

I need an auto flow that can email an attachment I was reading posts from 2020 that said it could be done but those options seem to be out of date. Can I automatically send attachments automatically via automated flow?

  • I had to create a Request for Update with the attachments. I just used a star so they could confirm that they received the attachment. That is the only way I could find that would work. I wanted to insure that someone couldn't come back and say that they never got the attachment. So that's why I had them place a star as a confirmation.

  • I figured it out:

    Create Alert flow

    Trigger when rows are changed

    When an attachment is added/changed

    Alert Someone

    Who?

    Subject?

    Message?

    Message includes - Links to sheet and specific fields - An attachment.

    This will only run when the attachment is added but it does work.

  • Awesome! Thank you for sharing.
