Send email with options does not wait for response, immediately completes

Posted on by jparis

I'm trying to experiment with the send email with options. From what I'm seeing, it should wait on a response that is selected from the email it sends out before continuing on with the Flow.

When I run my flow, it is instantly completing it with my second option as the selected option (completed and not needed, it is always selected not needed).

Am I missing something painfully obvious?

Please provide a screenshot showing your Flow's configuration. It should wait for a selected option. I don't see anything wrong with what you are trying to do.

Here is one of the branches, the other branch does the same thing but for a different user and will update a different column in the sharepoint list.

The update items are just assigning the confim or not needed values to a sharepoint column depending on which is selected.

I don't see anything wrong with your setup other than it looks like there is no space after the comma in your options, but I don't think that matters.

Hi @jparis

Use SelectedOption dynamic output from send email with options action in your if condition

Thanks for pointing that out, I've updated that, but it still immediately completes the action instead of waiting for a response.

Hi @jparis

Try creating another flow to test it out

this surely looks like a bug
the action by default waits for a response

Created a fresh one in a new list as well with just a title column and a choice (status) column. Same thing, instantly selects the not needed option.

All of a sudden instead of selecting the not needed option, it is automatically selecting Completed. I made sure to even close Outlook and OWA.
