You can also select "is skipped" or "has timed out" depending on the needs of your project requirements. This will tell the flow to run the LHS branch only when the first move has failed. To achieve that click on the three dots in the second move -> Then click "Configure run after" -> Then select as below See the red box marked with the dotted arrow in the above screenshot on the LHS. Choose what you want to do in case the original move was a success. Select the plus sign below the original move and choose "Add a parallel branch" The second move is to rename the file along with the move. This time give a new name (maybe a datetimestamp suffix). This left branch is in case if the first move failed One if the move was a success and another if it was not. Is there any solution to this issue? It seems very limiting to the general usefulness of the email-to-OneDrive flow. One can reduce the problem somewhat by prepending to the filename the time the file was received, but that results in long clunky file names, and does not successfully handle multiple attachments from the same email that just happen to have the same file name. That's a lot more Power Automate code than I am prepared to learn, write, and debug.
#Automatic email attachment downloader serial number
I assume one could get the names of all the files in the folder (hundreds? thousands?), check the list for duplicate file names, and if necessary add a serial number to generate a unique name. Create File does not append a serial number or otherwise handle the duplication in a lossless way. I don't see any easy way to automatically assign a unique name to new files, so that the existing ones are not overwritten. When automatically saving attachments from email into OneDrive, using the Power Automate Create File function, the new file will automatically overwrite the existing file.
