Hi,
\n
\nA new starter request has been logged by @{body('Get_user_profile_(V2)')?['displayName']}.

", "ishtml": true }, "path": "/v3/mail/send", "authentication": "@parameters('$authentication')" }, "metadata": { "flowSystemMetadata": { "swaggerOperationId": "SendEmailV3" } } }

 

But the Email prints the multiple choices responses like this: Hardware Required: ["Laptop","Mobile","Headset"]

 

I am using V3 send Email because I don't want my Email address to be the sender, instead it shows as a generic address.

 

Can I not have the responses like this in the Email body? 

 

Hardware Required: 

 

Laptop

Mobile

Headset

 

Thanks

    @AndrewSmith84 you can see my response at https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Case-Switch-from-an-MS-form-not-working/m-p/442725#M52294 which describes how to break out the response from a multi-select Forms questions into individual string variables. Hopefully that will help you.
