Cannot include specific Form result in email

Posted on by 4

Hi 

 

I'm quite new to Power Automate.

 

I'm using it with Microsoft Forms to send an email. 

 

In the attached screengrab I'm managing to  include data from the form. You'll see two there representing someone's name and their age.

 

I'm trying to add a third from the form which is their School. This is from a multiple choice list on the form. Every time I add it, it adds it, but then when I save it, Power Automate deletes it and I'm left with just the previous two.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks

Graham

    As a workaround, try adding a Compose action before your email action. In the Compose action, add all three fields from your form question responses. Then, reference your Compose action in the body of your email action. I can't explain why it's removing the 3rd form response from the email body action, but since you are using the new designer, there might be some sort of bug?

    I have exactly the same issue. 

     

    Using forms to compose a mail, and I´m using quite some form feedbacks as you can see in the screenshot. The flow is working, but i cannot add the one marked in red. When I save the flow it is just deleted.

    This particular respons is a long text field, the other responses (the working ones) are both short text fields, numbers and likees /multiple choiche

    Update:

    I did some testing back and forth. When shortening the length of the question behind the response it finally worked.
