Automated email using flow from external account

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 12

Hi. Have a working flow to send automated email based on something happening in a sharepoint list. However the email is sent from the creator of the flow. I need the flow to send the email from an external account. Is this possible?

Thanks

Darren

    Hi @DarrenScott,

    You could focus on FROM field of advanced options from the Send an Email V2 action. 

    But you should make sure that the maker of the flow must have Send As permission to the mailbox the email should come from.  That can be assigned by an Exchange Administrator or the person who owns the mailbox.
