Canvas App - text_input Comments section

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by hsiddiq 32

Hi, I have a canvas app with text_input named as Comments. This is used to add comments but when I trigger the Cloud Flow and pass the Comments variable the display is not taking into account the Enter (next line) instead shows everything in same line.

Note: When I enter twice (then it shows next line which is not ideal)

 

Please see my Flow screen-shot.

    Hi @hsiddiq ,

     

    Could you please tell me,

    Did you set the textinput's Mode property to TextMode.MultiLine?

    I've made a test but it worked well on my side:

    Is this the write way to pass the output from Cavas app to my Power-Automate flow?

    Hi @hsiddiq ,

     

    That is fine , \n means newline in JSON.

    But when the post is displayed on MS-Teams group chat, its showing everything in 1 line unless I give 2 enters? Any idea why?

    This is my Cloud Flow - Inputs are coming in from Canvas flow (as mentioned above)

    Hi @hsiddiq ,

     

    Please use RichTextBlock instead.
