Attaching Excel doc from Onedrive

[EntryLevelData]

Hello everyone!

I am trying to automate a flow to send an updated excel doc from my onedrive on a set schedule through outlook. The flow seems to be working, and the email sends daily, however when attaching the excel doc, the file type changes. Not sure what I am doing wrong? Current flow: 
-Recurrence
-Get File Content
-Send an email V2 (attaching the 'File content' on to the email)

thank you for your help.

Hi @EntryLevelData . I think that after the attachment name you must put the extension .xlsx.

Please try it, and if works, mark as the solution!

Cheers!

Diego, would you know of any way to have an excel doc stored on OneDrive automatically refresh in the background, without having to have the document open? could this be achieved with power automate or power apps?

Hi @EntryLevelData, you can write to any Office document from Power Automate flow and is saved automatically. You don't need to open it.
