Create child task based on number of attachments in the email

[poorva1]

Hi All,

I have a requirement where I need to create child tasks on a record, based on the number of attachments in an email.

Eg-

So if the email has 4 attachments, the parent record should have 4 child tasks.

Any inputs on how this can be done.

thanks!

Hi @poorva1 ,

Create a flow that triggers on an Inbound Email Trigger and then use the action "Move Email Attachments to Record" to move the attachments from the inbound email to your record.

And use a loop to create child tasks.

Hi @Cheikh Ahmadou  ,

Thanks for your response. 

I was able to do this by using 'Look up email attachments' action and then using for each loop to create a record for each attachment. 

Thanks,
