Conversion to json for attachments using "json()" not working so far

[SaifAli]

Hi Team,

So currently i have a scenario in which i'm pulling the incoming attachment and their contents and trying to send them over an email 

So in the attachments section of send an email v2 i'm passing the json as below :

[

 { "Name" : "{attachment name}",

   "ContentBytes" : "{base64 encoded bytes for content returned by the API}"

 }

]

There are following steps for my flow :

Step 1 : Send the http request for different urls for different attachments and receive the their data (content-type and contentbytes)

Step 2 : Creating an Array as per the format required to send over the email that means (can be understood in below image )

Step 3 : Converting the array to the string

Step 4 : Converting the string to json

Step 5 : Sending it over in the email step

The problem is I'm not getting any attachments at all in the output email.

Hi @SaifAli ,

You need to add double quotes outside of Name and ContentBytes, please refer to this blog and see if it helps:

https://flow.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/multiple-attachments-single-email/

And it seems that you don't need to use the json() function to convert it. You can directly fill the array variable output from the Append to array variable 2 action in Attachments field, just like the configuration in the Blog.

Please take a try.
