Create new list item from a button in an email

Posted on by MikeBlairTP 149

I want to send an email to a large group and ask them a question.  I have create a Power Automate using send email with options and then log the answer in a SPO list.  However, I am being limited by the max 50 concurrency limit.  If the first 50 don't answer then the other recipients won't be sent an email. 

 

As an alternative I was thinking of sending an email with a HTML button.  This button uses a HTTP post to the list to record there answer.

 

The question is how to achieve this when I have 0 experience with SharePoint REST API

    Dear Mike,

    Interesting question, where exactly do you hit the 50 limit? Maybe you could include a screenshot of the flow and the error message?

    If this is part of the PowerAutomate flow (and limit), then I would see several options of working around this:

    • Include a counter in the flow and after every 49 counts, build in a delay of 1min or so, such that the limit gets cleared.
    • Don't try to do all at once and let your flow loop through a list of your recipients and send out the emails one by one (or a few more if you allow parallel loops), as such it would be unlikely that you hit any limits.
    • ... depending on your situation, there is bound to be more options as you do not seem to have a very tight time-pressure.

     

    Hope the suggestions help,

    Happy flowing,

    Koen
