How to Launch Outlook from PowerApps.

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi PowerApps Community,

I am creating a powerapp for users who work on their work PC. The outlook accounts are not on cloud at the moment and the hybrid join is still not in place. So I am not able to just trigger a flow using the Outlook connector.

 

So I wanted to somehow let the user open outlook Send Email window on a button click.

Is there a way to do this somehow??

    Yes, you can utilize the Launch command to do this.

    Ex. Launch("mailto:<someEmailAddress>")

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.

    Hi, 

     

    I have used this and is there a way to launch outlook web instead of desktop application?

     

    Thanks.

    Here is an example string to create the subject and body.  As to putting some text from inputs of power apps

    Launch("mailto:<email@gmail.com?subject=subject&body=PROJECT DESCRIPTION" & card.htmlText
