Good morning,

I hope this is an easy question. If a user writes a couple of accountnames in his form, like:

It goes through power automate and this is the result in an e-mail:

There are no enters. Everything is parsed into one big sentence. How can I change this? Is there an option in Forms or powerautomate to recognize enters?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Tobias

Power Automate recognises the newlines fine. But you are putting them into a HTML email. HTML does not recognise new lines, so you need to transform them into HTML line breaks. You can do that with an expression like this:
replace(outputs('Compose'), decodeUriComponent('%0A'), '<br />')
You need to replace outputs('Compose') with the value from your form that you want to have line breaks in and then use the output of the compose in your email.

Thanks for replying @Paulie78
How am I going to do this? The following screenshot contains the e-mail with the forms:

The value with "stel je vraag" needs to contain the enters. Do I need to create a new Compose with the lines in it? Can you give me an example of this? I'm really new into this.

Thanks in advance!

kind regards
