Hi Folks,

Could someone please assist me with sending an email from PowerApps to Azure AD Group? Is it possible to send an email from PowerApps directly to Azure AD Group? Does sending emails require any kind of connectivity or automation?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi sachinsoni441,

Thank you for choosing Microsoft Community.

Sending an email from PowerApps to an Azure AD Group is indeed possible, but it requires some setup and connectivity.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you out:

Use the Office 365 Outlook Connector: PowerApps can use the Office 365 Outlook connector to send emails. This connector allows you to send emails to individual users or groups. However, sending emails directly to an Azure AD Group requires that the group is mail-enabled.

Mail-Enabled Security Groups: Ensure that the Azure AD Group you want to send emails to is mail-enabled. If it's not, you might need to create a mail-enabled security group in Azure AD.

SMTP Connector: Another option is to use the SMTP connector in PowerApps. This connector allows you to send emails using an SMTP server. You will need the SMTP server address, username, password, and port details.

Automation with Power Automate: For more advanced scenarios, you can use Power Automate (formerly known as Microsoft Flow) to automate the process. You can create a flow that triggers when an event occurs in PowerApps and sends an email to the Azure AD Group.

Permissions and Connectivity: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access the Azure AD Group and send emails. You might need to configure API connections and authentication settings in PowerApps.
