How to collect information without using Collections?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi Power Apps Community,

Currently in the process of creating a request app with the ability to Cc multiple email addresses when a Send Button is clicked. For this, I am using 365 as data source and gallery.

However although I can select multiple emails, it only sends to 1 email (usually only the one at the top of the list) when the Send Button is clicked. 

Is there a way to collect the selected multiple email addressed without using collections? Thank you!

    Hi @Anonymous , so that looks like an error in your collection - can you see the email addresses in your collection in the file tab?

    Hi @Alex_Security 

    the email format is always First.Last@email.com

    I tried the Concat function into a text label and it's only showing the --> ;

    Hmmm ok, that might be the mail format - can you output the Concat function into a text label and make sure the emails are formatting correctly?

    No worries! 🙂

    Yes the email is sending but no email on Cc

    Hmm ok, sorry .Mail is correct, email was because of my custom table! Doh! so is the email sending, but no attachment? or its not sending?

    Hi @Alex_Security 

    Yes, I want to keep both. So I made changed in my Cc:

    Also tried this:

    No squiggly lines but it did not attach any email when I click Send 🙂

    or failing that, if you want to keep both the name and email in the collection, edit your CC to this:

     

    {cc: Concat(NOTIFIED.Email,";")}

    Hi @Anonymous , In your Collect you'll need to put Collect(NOTIFIED, ThisItem.Mail), as it'll need the email specifically to know what to Concat 🙂
