@NISHIKA18 

It sounds like you have two main issues:

1. How to get the EXCEL data in a suitable format.

2. How to then use that data as an attachment for an email.

For point 1:

Is your EXCEL file data stored as a rule? (Say a Rule-File-Binary)

If so - check the 'pyFileSource' property for the rule - this will be the base64 data you need for your file content.

For point 2:

What Activity are you using to send the email - and does take a base64 encoded file content for sending as email already - or do you need to develop that? (I'm not sure if one already exists - but others may).

 

We'd prefer it if you saw us at our best.
