    Hi Ravi,

    When you fill document field of the email in the flow, not directly using document value from note, you need use base64ToBinary() to convert document.

    Please refer following steps.

    1.Add ‘Compose’ step before ‘send email’ step.

    Maybe you could give some more info about your flow. Or first simplify the flow to few basic steps. You could also check the contents of the document by changing it's file type like zip(a docx document is in the basics a zip file with xml and embedded media). The problem could also be that the file extension is missing, because it's also missing in your screen shot.
