    Hi,
     
    Not sure what the request is here but typically you start in Cloud and use a trigger such as when a new email arrives.  From here, you can easily capture the email body with a compose and pass the body of the email to a PAD flow to do other things.  It can also do a lot in PAD but not with this trigger.
