With the current code I have, is there a way to add code to send email to the person that updated the app?

If(
    IsBlank(DateValue1.SelectedDate) || IsBlank(DataCardValue16.Text),
    Notify("Please fill in all required fields.", NotificationType.Error),
    Notify("Form submitted successfully!", NotificationType.Success)

);
SubmitForm(EditForm1);(NotificationType.Success);

Hi Sonyat810

Modify your existing code to trigger a flow that sends the email:

If(
IsBlank(DateValue1.SelectedDate) || IsBlank(DataCardValue16.Text),
Notify("Please fill in all required fields.", NotificationType.Error),
Notify("Form submitted successfully!", NotificationType.Success)
);

// Trigger Power Automate Flow to send email to the current user
Set(varUserEmail, User().Email); // Store the current user's email

SubmitForm(EditForm1);

// Call Power Automate flow to send an email
'Send Email Flow'.Run(varUserEmail, "Subject of the email", "Body of the email");

// Optional: You can customize the message further with dynamic content like form values

Create a flow that accepts parameters (the email, subject, and body) and uses the "Send an email (V2)" action from Outlook or another email service you are using.

set the flow trigger to be "PowerApps", and add actions to send the email. The parameters will be passed from Power Apps when the flow is triggered.

pls try and let me know if you need more details.

thanks.

If you add an Office365Outlook connection to your app you can send the email by making these changes to your code.

If( IsBlank(DateValue1.SelectedDate) || IsBlank(DataCardValue16.Text), Notify("Please fill in all required fields.", NotificationType.Error), SubmitForm(EditForm1); Notify("Form submitted successfully!", NotificationType.Success); Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(User().email,"subject line of the email","Body of the email you want to send"); );

You can connect to Outlook 365 as a data source. From there you can compose an email after your action takes place for example on a click of a button. Here's a link to a site but there are other good resources out there if you search "Office365Outlook send email v2 powerapps"

@Sonyat810

You're missing your To part of the email.

@nleuck_101 The User().Email is the To portion. He wants to send it to the person running the app.

Yes, I added the connector. Would it have something to due with the total code:
