For a selected file trigger - returned encrypted user email

[hubertlam]

I've created a Flow in which it uses the For a selected file trigger on a SharePoint Document Library.

It then tries to extract the email address of the user who triggered the Flow, however, the email address returned is encrypted!

Can anyone else replicate this?

Extract the email address of the user who triggered the Flow...email address returned is encrypted!

OK - just found out that this is Base64 encoding:

Anyone know how to decode from base64 back into plain text?

What the heck?!?! It's now working again.

Someone has been tweaking the encoding behind the scenes!

It appears it's not fixed. Mine just started having this issue last week (10/11/2019)

Any suggestions.

I am currently experiencing this issue since yesterday, 10/29/2020. Anyone else having this issue? 

Update: I was able to create a new flow as a work around for this issue. It is unfortunate to have to transfer all my actions to the new flow to resolve this issue.
