This flow creates maximum of 4 attachments. The email body provides count of data in each attachment. There are days where no data will be output on 1 or more tables.

This is causing the flow to return an error message and not send out the email. I want the flow to be dynamic when there is no data to create an attachement and add to the email body.

Please help.

I don't use multiple joins - but you can either add a dummy field with the same name (use a union) or if that is potentially going to have 0 rows - you should create two paths - one for an e-mail with file - one for an e-mail without.

Hi @Chirag101 - There are a few ways to achieve a desired outcome. You may want to try Control Containers. Have a look at the Use Case #3 here: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Engine-Works/Control-Containers-Take-Control-of-Your-Workflow/ba-p/...
