Hello all, excited to possibly use the technology as a solution. I will share the use case please advise if possible.
I would like to send the same message to individuals contained in an Excel File identified by Email Address
Is this possible?
Help @Nik_Johnson
You can use Power Automate to do this:
Check out this guide to build a flow that does this:

In PVA just call the action for power automate and build the flow as per the guide above.
you can get the person interacting with the bot by following my guide here:

Thank you for your response @Jcook 2 questions 1. Does the @Mention create a private chat/message in teams? 2. If it does can you feed a collection of names to it by way of a loop or reading from a flat file?
Hi @Nik_Johnson
Sorry for the late reply.
1. The mention token can be used in Channels or private chats. It depends on which action you use the token in.
2. Yes you should be able to create a Apply to each loop to get a list of mention tokens which can be used
Thanks
