Email Tool Error

Question

Hi all,

I have used a directory tool to read in a list of excel files that I need to send out via the email tool. I have configured the email tool in the attachments section to use the FileName column as the attachments. However when I run the workflow the email tool it gives me the following error:

Error: Email (19): Record#1: Can't read file C:\Program Files\Alteryx\bin\Analysis_Test.xlsx: The system cannot find the file specified. (2)

Anyone have any advice or ideas on how to overcome this?

Cheers in advance for taking the time look

Yes - the Directory tool should give you the FullPath you are looking for that gives you the path plus the file name altogether

Ahhh okay I think I know what you mean so should I reference the file path first followed by the filename in the attachments section?

Yes, you need to reference that column in the attachments section of the email tool!
