Retrieving data from output

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I have have a flow connected to MS forms which after the responder submits the form, the flow sends a confirmation mail and makes a Devops item. 

 

I now want to create a flow when that Devops item is being closed, that the responder gets an email. I have trouble retrieving the email address of the responder. I have tried it before with adding a tag to the Devops item but this is not allowed (the tags list will be flooded with all kinds email addresses. Thought about filtering the information from the Devops body (system description), but did not get far. Does anyone know a option/solution?

 

Output: 

 

"WEF___Column": "Done",
 "WEF___Column_Done": false,
 "System_Description": "<p><strong>TEST TEST /<br>\n</strong><br>\nE-mail: test@test.com <br>\nDashboard: </p>",
 "System_Tags":

    Hi @Anonymous 

    Assuming you've access to the System_Description value can you try

    first(split(last(split(variables('description'),'E-mail:')),'<br>'))

    here we're going to split by  text content and with E-mail: and <br> as separators

     

    Thanks
