Using Flows in Powerapps

Posted on by KristyH

Hi Team

I want to add a flow inside my App which will send an email to specific person depending on condtions, once the submit button has been clicked.

eg. if Person is equal to Name1 - if Yes: email Name1, if No: If Person is equal to Name2 - if yes: email Name2 etc etc

I know that i need to make the flow inside Powerapps, which i have done with the conditions, however, upon putting MyFlow.Run () tells me i need to put parameters into the () section. this is the section i'm not understanding.

I have been making flows with Power Automate so i may be getting the criteeria wrong as inside powerapps is slightly different.

Hi @KristyH,

The error means that you need to refer to the parameters that you used in your flow.

If you need to send email to Name1, then you need to transfer the Name1 email address from Power Apps to Power Automate. Like that you have a TextInput including Name1, you need to refer to TextInput1.Text in your MyFlow.Run () like below:

MyFlow.Run(TextInput1.Text)

Actually, it is much easier to achieve this directly in Power Apps, just write an if statement on the OnSelect property of a button as below:

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(If(Person1=Name1,Name1emailaddress,Person2=Name2,Name2emailaddress),"Notify","Testbody")

oh wonderful. i am trying the "if statement" now. thanks for that, but where do i put the email body? or do i need to save an email template?
eg.
Offce365Outlook.SendEmailV2(if DataCard1="name1","Name1@emailaddress.com.au")
where do i put the body?

Hi @KristyH,

I have wrote it in my previous reply, please check it one more time:

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(If(Person1=Name1,Name1emailaddress,Person2=Name2,Name2emailaddress),"Notify","Testbody")//TestBody is the place where you could input body//
