I am using Dynamics 365, and my team mates would like to receive a notification via email, if someone has posted anything in the "Post" section of Activities entity. Is this possible through flow?

    Hi @Sumayya,

     

    Do you want to send out a notification email when a record is created in Activities entity?

     

    Please use the trigger When a record is created, select Activities for the Entity Name field. Then send an email, fill in the To field with an email address.

     

    Please take the following screenshot for a reference and try with it on your side.

    Hi, Thanks for your reply.

     

    I want to receive an email notification when a Post is created. Post is a sub set of Activities entities - and I dont know how to generate a notification when a post is made by any one.
