Error with When a New Email Arrive_(v3) - Not supported

Hi,

 

I'm trying to use the trigger When A New Email Arrives (v3) to trigger a flow that gets the mail and the attachments and downloads them, but when i try and save this flow i get the error;

 

The workflow run action 'When_a_new_email_arrives_(V3)' has type 'ApiConnectionNotification' that is not supported.

 

Below is a screenshot of the flow and the error message, this did seem to be working on Friday.

Hi

 

This is what we did to get the solution.

 

1. Declare two string variables for the comparison.

2. Use the Name dynamic property from SharePoint List

3. Use expression toLower() for both string comparison

 

Thanks

Hi @amelsom85 

 

The reason for the error is under your parallel branch you have a trigger called when an email is received. You can't have multiple triggers in Power Automate. Not sure why it allows to add as an action step? 

 

Thanks

Hi @amelsom85,

 

Actually, there is no workable to add the trigger "When a new email arrives" under an existed trigger.

For your requirements, you should create two Flows to approach it, one is "When a response submit", the other is "When a new email arrives", and create store attachments action in the second Flow.

Thanks I’ve looked at ways around this. The issue I have is that I need the files to be put into a folder that is named from the response is submitted form so it names a job number a name and a client name. The only way I can see to get the references ia to make this in the same flow so I can use the compose functions to compose the folder name I want it to find using the control condition (contains) unless there is a way to get this in a different flow? Or reference a difference a flow so I can match the name of the folder and put the files in the right place.

Hi @amelsom85 

 

Another option is think about splitting as two flows.  Flow support child flows.

Hi

 

I have a work around that takes the subject of an email and stripes the RE:Technical Response - Code - Event - Client and then composes that, then it runs a condition on the folder list to find the folder named the name Code - Event - Client, but for some reason the condition will not match them, even though they are both the same name, any suggests this would solve my issue, or am i better off calling the child flow? I also don't have the Run a Child Flow as an option as well. 

 

I think i may have the same issue as i need to reference the new folder the Child flow would create to be able to populate, below are the two images, from of the flow and one of what output of the flow.

 

Any suggestions of why it might not match, I've tried using Equals and Contains, i'm not quite sure of the difference on those conditions though.

Hi @amelsom85 

 

Comparisons are case sensitive. Try ToLower expression on both sides of the condition and try.

 

Thanks

Hi,


Could you explain a bit more on this? When i check the composed response the case sensitivity both match, folder name is the same etc, i'm not sure how to implement the ToLower command? 

 

Just to confirm this is the folder it needs to find and this is the output of the compose

Hi @amelsom85 

 

Click expression, type ToLower()

Place the cursor between the two brackets of toLower(). Next click Dynamic content tab and select your dynamic field.

Click ok

hi so i did this and it does lower the text but i don't understand how that helps the condition match? it means the text is now a different format to the what it is try to match in the folder structure, which is always a Number - Event - Client, the same details that come in from the email subject are what create the folder.

 

The folder is created from a Jotform submissions that populates the folder name with the Number - Event - Client detail's the email that it is reading from is populated from the same information so they will always match, but for some reason the condition is reading it properly, and because it only returns a false expressions i can't tell what it is trying to match.

Hi @amelsom85 

 

In these situations I generally use the below debugging technique.

Above your IF condition add a new Compose step and map the tolower() expression of DisplayName, then declare another compose and add tolower() expression for subject. Map the outputs of the compose under the IF condition. Run the flow and check the run history and see what values are returning.

 

Thanks

Thanks for your help on this, it was brilliant and this is all now working correctly. 

Hi, I have similar issue with the error obtained as below.

laychlim_0-1628819358328.png

When I use the trigger 'When a new email arrives (V3)', I was able to save the attachment from the email into on-premise data storage (shared drive). However when I added the recurrence connector, this error occurs. Not sure how I can solve my problem. My same recurrence flow worked when saving attachment to cloud storage eg (OneDrive or SharePoint). Here's the comparison of my flow

I was able to save my attachment from Outlook email into Shared Drive. Tested working. This is the flow that’s working. I was able to pass the output from email the 'Attachment' in the next step.

laychlim_2-1628819774659.jpeg

However when I tried to use my working scheduled flow created with OneDrive and SharePoint by just adding the recurrence connector, it didn’t work with Shared Drive. Error occurred.  Now the 'Attachment' I select as output changed automatically to value and error occurs.
