Hello,
I'd be grateful if someone can assist with the following:
I'm trying to use a Standard Logic App to copy an email attachment to Azure Files Storage.

I am using the "In App" Connector for Create File. Below is a picture of my flow. I'm getting as far as the attachment making it's way to my Azure File Share, but it's either corrupt or is being overwritten with incorrect information. If it's a .jpg, it just doesn't open. If it's an Excel file, the contents are replaced with the file properties.

If I attempt to add certain dynamic content, it will automatically add 2 additional "For Each" loops, which doesn't make any sense.

Standard logic app is using outbound vnet integration, and Azure File Share is behind a private endpoint. Network communication is working, or it wouldn't be dropping anything into the share. Just need to get the original attachment dropped there, and not sure what I'm doing wrong. I have case open with MS, but they're not sure either.
