Hi,

I am trying to send an email from a button with the formula:

Office365Outlook.SendEmail()

My table is a sharepoint list, in which we have a text-field (this can be changed if another column-type will work), where the user writes an e-mail address. I would like to be able to use the above formula to SEND to that e-mail. However, if I write the following formula, it will not send:

Office365Outlook.SendEmail(TextFieldDataCard, "Subject", "Body", {From: User().Email)

This above does not work. I have tried a variety of different ways of retrieving the datafield such as:

TextFieldDataCard.Text , Value(TextFieldDataCard.Text)

None of which work.

If I write it the following way, with: "" then it works such as bellow:

Office365Outlook.SendEmail("email@email.com", "Subject", "Body", {From: User().Email)

Is there any way to pull a written email address from any sort of field and send to a such mail?

Can you begin by making these changes and let me know the test result?

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(TextFieldDataCard.Text, "Subject", "Body", {From: User().Email})

Hi@mdevaney ! 🙂

Yes, I am sorry, that was merely a type in my original post. It was easier to write it that way as I have a lot of information I would need to delete in the actual button. The formula gives me no errors, however, I do not receive any email when I send to my own e-mail.

Make sure its also SendMailV2. Best to use the most current connector 😉

Can you please put TextFieldDataCard.Text in the Text property of the label and let me know if it shows any email?

@mdevaney,

Perfect! If I create a label and pull that information to the Formula it works. Thank you for bringing that thought to mind! 🙂
