When sending an email with the code below the HTML tags are printed out in the email.

SMTP.SendEmailV3({
 From: "pappuser@weutt.onmicrosoft.com",
 To: cmbTutorName.Selected.Email,
 CC: gblCurrentUser.O365MyProfile.mail,
 Subject: "UTT Peer Tutoring Programme (PTP) - Application for Peer Tutoring Services: " & gblCurrentForm.FormStatus & " Course: "& gblCurrentForm.'Course Code' & "-" & gblCurrentForm.CourseTitle,
 Body: "Sent on behalf of the <b>UTT Peer Tutoring Programme - Application for Peer Tutoring Services" & "<br>" & "The Student," & gblCurrentForm.StudentName.DisplayName & " has submitted a peer tutoring request from and is requesting your tutoring assistance." & "<br>Plesae <a href='[App Link]?ItemId=" & gblCurrentForm.ID & "'>Click here</a> to view the request from.<br>" & "<br><br>Request Form ID: " & gblCurrentForm.ID & "Regards, <br>PEER TUTORING PROGRAMME SERVICES" 
})

Hi @rpersad

It looks like the HTML tags are being displayed as plain text instead of being rendered in the email body. This issue occurs because the email is being sent as plain text rather than HTML.

To fix this, you can try adding the IsHTML parameter. Here is how you can adjust your code to specify the content type, Updated Code:

SMTP.SendEmailV3({ From: "pappuser@weutt.onmicrosoft.com", To: cmbTutorName.Selected.Email, CC: gblCurrentUser.O365MyProfile.mail, Subject: "UTT Peer Tutoring Programme (PTP) - Application for Peer Tutoring Services: " & gblCurrentForm.FormStatus & " Course: "& gblCurrentForm.'Course Code' & "-" & gblCurrentForm.CourseTitle, Body: "Sent on behalf of the UTT Peer Tutoring Programme - Application for Peer Tutoring Services The Student, " & gblCurrentForm.StudentName.DisplayName & " has submitted a peer tutoring request and is requesting your tutoring assistance. Please <a href='[App Link]?ItemId=" & gblCurrentForm.ID & "'>Click here</a> to view the request. Request Form ID: " & gblCurrentForm.ID & " Regards, PEER TUTORING PROGRAMME SERVICES", IsHtml: true })

Im not 100% sure it will work because that parameter is now present in the deprecated sendemail actions, and I haven't used it in a long time, but give it a shot and let me know,

you can find more information about the sendemail action and the available parameters bellow:

Hi @Giraldoj,
Thank you for the response, it did solve my issue.

However, this is a problem, from what I am aware of, only occurs with the current application I am developing. All of the older applications, in the business, that uses the same Send Email V2 works with no issues, without the IsHTML parameter, so I cannot say for sure it will also work 100% of the time. I did also try using Send Email V3 and it worked without the IsHTML parameter. I was wondering if anyone would have known if there was an update to the Send Email V2 that would have explained this change.
