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flow that can email an attachment I was reading posts from 2020 that said it could be done but those options seem to be out of date.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.
You can also do this with Microsoft Power Automate - so the flow could trigger when a box is checked on by date. Then you are able to fully customize the email being sent and it's better if you need to audit every email sent, because emails are being sent from you (your Outlook email) and saved in your sent folder.
I helped create a course for this that walks you through the entire process step by step. There are other posts in Knowledge Base about doing this, and even advice about how to set up Power Automate, but it is hard to follow screenshots. Recommend checking out the course!

Good morning all. I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to create a formula to pull (populate) all names listed in a column from another sheet. The closest I've been able to get is utilizing the formulas below but neither are what I need. Cell linking does not appear to be a good option due to the potential to add additional…
Hi all, I'm looking for a COUNT or COUNTIF formula to total drop-down menu selections within a given range of cells in a column range. The attached shows the DD menu with trusses selected. Our sheets are broken into calendar months, sometimes with over 100 entries for that month. Not every cell within that column has…
Please tell me WHY when I "test" run this automated notification it shows everything, and not just what my "triggers" are? Is it because it is a test and I can be certain it won't show up when the trigger occurs?
