Fetching Some Documents From Azure Results in Email Problem?
Greetings,
I've created a flow using the Azure module to fetch documents from azure and get them to my geology group via a Send Email step. So my process looks something like this:
- Fetch file from Azure with a name like "Rock Properties: Malachite"
- Attach the file to a Send Email in the Attachments input
When I do this with the files called "Monthly Rocks Facts", I don't have any issues. However, the email above seems to give me problems with the Rock Properties files; the email just doesn't send.
Is there maybe a size limit I'm hitting here silently? I don't see any error being thrown. What might be the cause of this?

Hello!
Based on what you are describing, it sounds like the issue is the filename itself. Windows does not allow for the inclusion the ":" in file names, which looks to be causing a problem with the Send Email sending these messages. There are two workarounds here:
1. Rename the files in the Azure storage
2. When choosing to attach a file, select "Build Data" on the input instead of "Select From Flow" and pass-in a different name, as shown below:
And pass-in the new filename without the colon:
We hope this helps!
