I have a PDF file and inside the PDF file there is an email address i want to take the email address from inside the file and use it to send the same file as an attachment to that email address. Its going to be used to have emails automatically sent out when the file is saved in a folder. all the PDFs are basically the same just the emails will be different from each one

Hi @chrisingh42188 ,
If you save the name the .pdf file with email address, please refer to screenshot below to create the flow:
The expression in the Compose 2 as below:
first(split(outputs('Compose'),'.pdf'))
Please let me know if your problem could be solved.

Well rather than doing that i tried to save the files name as the email that its supposed to go to but i ran in to the issue of ".pdf" showing up in the email address. is there any way to stop that from happening?

i got it to work but i didnt do it that way i got them to save the pdf as the email its going to but i used the sharepoint trigger "when a file is created (properties only)" which allowed me to get the correct dynamic content
