Email a recipient based on a selection in forms

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Chizie

Hi,

I am trying to create a flow which emails a specific recipient based on an answer in forms.

So, if a question has a choice of 10 answers, and dependant on which answer is selected, an email is to be sent to the specific employee assigned to that answer.

EG

If

Option A selected - send email to person 1

Option B is selected - send email to person 2

Option C - Person 3

and so on.

 

Please help!!

    You can use a switch to accomplish what you want:

    Update it with your option values and replace the Compose with an e-mail action.

     

    Regards,

    Hello, 

    I can't get this to work because my choices get brackets and quotes put around them by the system. As an example, the entry Apple gets converted to ["Apple"], which cannot be entered into the Case for the switch. Any ideas?
