Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hi,

I have created a flow triggering from powerapps and start an approval request email. I want to get the details from powerapps and flow to the body email in approval request email.

Trigger point : PowerApps

Next, Start an approval

In the approval request email,

after clicking on the button ( submit for Approval) , and approal request email will be sent out and all the details in powerapps will display in the body email of approval request email.

However,

for below table, those highlighted field is not showing anything in the email.

Gross Amount, VAT and Net Amount (Number) is blank.

When i test the flow from power automate and input the details manually, it worked. But if I test from PowerApps, it failed.

Is this because of the type of data is different and we need to convert it into string ? We have tried different approach but still cannot manage to figure out.

Appreciate your help!!

Thank you in advance

Hey @cyt ,

Are you using currency data type for all these fields Gross Amount, VAT and Net Amount (Number) or just "Text" data type.

First & foremost check if you're passing the values from canvas app properly. Check if these values are not null before passing. I mean to say these fields should contain some data. After that check flow run & see if data is coming there correctly or not. Check if it is coming as null or have some value but different datatype.

Then in that case:

So, if you're using anything other that text. In Approval Email body instead of using PowerAppsInput for all these value directly type case them. Use string(parameter) function in expression and pass these values as a parameter to string function.

I hope this simplifies your query if any more question let me know.

Warmly
