Dynamic field inserts into Dynamics 365 / CDS fields (for SMS dynamic content)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

 

I'm still learning Flow and have created a basic SMS sending mechanism. I now need to expand this and allow the user to insert Dynamics 365 fields into the message test, e.g. "Dear <<contact.firstname>> blah blah" where Flow replaces the <<contact.firstname>> placeholder with the contents of the contact's firstname field in Dynamics 365.  This needs to work for all fields, not just contact.firstname. 

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction please? So far, I've got the message text in a variable but strugging to find the right expression/syntax to do the field replacement. 

 

Thanks in advance,
Becky

    Hey there.  So, do you already have a step to get the information from D365?  That would be the first part, and then we can just drop those 'dynamic values' into your SMS message string.  There's a bit to it, but you'll get the hang of it pretty quickly once you do it. 

     

    Maybe post what your flow looks like so far and we can go from there.

    Keep us posted.
