Hi Team,

I am facing one issue in SSIS.
Data Source is SQL and Excel is Destination.
And the data gets loaded into Excel 5 times a day.
The created excel is dynamic based on Timestamp.

The problem is every time dynamic Excel is generated(with timestamp) it also needs to be sent as mail attachment.
But how is it possible?
How to set the property of Mail attachment that it takes the Excel generated in previous step?
If i use Expressions it's not possible as time keeps on changing and it is not able to find any Excel file with those values.

below steps would work -

1) To Create dynamic excel sheet and export data from SQL

2) To modify variable "DestPath" (as mentioned in above blog) to generate the file name including Date-timestamp

3) To send the mail attaching the excel sheet created in above steps
Sending email from SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS)[^]

in attachment property, use the variable "DestPath"
