power automate data overwrite

[czjames87]

I am currently using a power automate flow to pull an attachment from a group email into my alteryx workflow. Is there a way to prevent the previous spreadsheets data from being overwritten by the new spreadsheet when its pulled into my flow?

Hi @czjames87 

Can you provide a few more details?  Which spreadsheet is being overwritten?  Is it one that your workflow outputs? If so, you can either modify your output tool to append the data to the sheet or use a technique like appending the date to the filename and writing to a new file each time.

That did it. I was just trying to add to the current output. Appending on to the current file was a simple fix. Thank you
