Hi @Alejandro-juarez22 

Unfortunately, It's not possible to send the google sheet as an attachment via email using QAA

We can achieve it using Microsoft Excel files where we can convert excel report to pdf and send it as an attachment using Send Mail block

For more info refer to the below article

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

There is a google sheets connector within Qlik Cloud application automation.

I suggest that you disable the 'send mail' object and do a 'test' run to ensure that there are no errors in your automation.

Once your tests are good with 'send mail' block disabled, you will then need to

  • re-enable the send mail block
  • ensure that your send mail object is configured accurately. 

Keep in mind that simple authentication has been disabled by providers such as google and microsoft. 

If the issue is with your SMTP provider which you use in your Send Mail object, then you may wish to try a different email provider. See suggestions in the link below.
