Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The flow does not include the 'Attachments' parameter in the 'Start and wait for an approval' action.
The approval step fails because the 'Start and wait for an approval' action requires the 'Attachments' parameter to be populated with the file content. Without it, no attachment is sent, even if the file is referenced elsewhere. Option A is incorrect because the issue is not about licensing; standard connectors support attachments. Option B is incorrect because there is no 10 MB limit for standard approvals; the file size limit is higher and not the cause here. Option C is incorrect because SharePoint connectors can access PDF files.
