Hello,
I am creating a flow where the trigger is "When an email arrives". The email which arrives will be a "forward" from a shared mailbox. What I am trying to do is creating a New Bucket on Planner which has as a name the original email address of the email which is being forwarded.
To clarify, I am not able to use the "from" of the dynamic content because this will always be the address of the Shared Mailbox I am forwarding the email from. The address I would like to obtain is actually in the body of the forwarded email and it is straight after the "From:" in the email being forwarded. Is there anyway of purely extracting this?
Thank you.
Hi @Anonymous
Yes, but since we don't have any Regular Expressions, we need to improvise.
We can split the text in 2. What comes before the "from: " and what comes after the first space after. For example:

afsdfasdfasd from: email@gmail.com asdfasd fasdfa sdfas dfasd f
if you do a split:
split(variable, "from: ")
You'll get an array with 2 parts
afsdfasdfasd from:
email@gmail.com asdfasd fasdfa sdfas dfasd f
Now let's ignore the first part and check the second:
split(split(variable?[1], 'from: '), ' ')
Now you'll get:
email@gmail.com asdfasd fasdfa sdfas dfasd f
Now let's ignore the second part.
split(split(variable?[1], 'from: '), ' ')?[0]
If all goes well you should find an email there.
Do all the steps in individual "Compose" actions to see what comes out from each step and correct accordignly.
Can you please check if and let me know if you have any questions?
