Auto populate attachments into sharepoint list from sharepoint document library

[Jamie206]

Hello,

I have a Sharepoint list with a row for each client of mine. I have a flow that automatically saves all email attachments to a Sharepoint document library. I would like to automatically put items from the document library into the attachment column in my Sharepoint list. For example, an email from a client with an attachment will be added to the client's row in my sharepoint list and/or if the attachment file contains "client name" then it is automatically added.

Hi @Jamie206 ,

I assume in you original flow, you have a When a new email arrives trigger. 

Hope this helps.

Hi Jeffer Ni,

I'm trying to do what is suggested as the solution but it fails. mine is slightly different. i want to attach files in my sharepoint library to the correct row in my client list. for example: a file from a client which was uploaded through onedrive and moved sharepoijt folder is to be added to the client's row in my sharepoint list by referencing if the file name contains "first name". "first name" is a column in my sharepoint list, containing the first names of my clients. so far i use the get items action with filter expression: contains(body('Get_items')?['value'], 'First Name'). but i get an error Flow save failed with code 'InvalidTemplate' and message 'The template validation failed: 'The 'inputs' property of template action 'Get_items' at line '1' and column '2221' is not valid. The action cannot reference itself.'.'.
was wondering if you can help me out.
