Support for ContentVersion attachments in email flow components
Send ContentVersion files directly from flows without additional conversion MSR-1192 | 2026-01
The existing Flow components SendAdvancedEmailThroughFlow (single recipient) and SendAdvancedEmailsThroughFlow (multiple recipients) currently support sending attachments based on a list of msf__Document__c records. This functionality has been extended to also support sending ContentVersion files directly. This makes it easier to send files that have not yet been stored as document records.
Who is this feature relevant for?
This feature is relevant for all organisations that send email messages using flows.
Key benefits
-
Files that exist in Salesforce as ContentVersion can now be attached directly to an email.
-
No mandatory conversion of ContentVersion files to Document (msf__Document__c) records, reducing complexity in flows.
-
Immediately applicable in scenarios where ContentVersion is the primary storage mechanism, such as uploads via Experience Cloud or integrations.
Feature explanation
The existing Flow components SendAdvancedEmailThroughFlow (single recipient) and SendAdvancedEmailsThroughFlow (multiple recipients) have been extended with an optional parameter that supports a collection of ContentVersion records. This collection can be retrieved using the Get Records element or assigned via a record collection variable.
Existing Flow components are automatically extended with this new parameter once the update is installed.
Set-up / Implementation Time
-
Very simple implementation: < 15 minutes
