Posted on by 641

Hi All,

 

I tried to send the email and submits the form on same action but failed.

I used powerapps button action to send email and then SubmitForm() but got the field validation error. I click on submit the form after entring the values but it then blank out the value on title field.

 

Submit button OnSelect: PowerAppsRequest.Run(User().Email,textBody.Text  & Proper(User().FullName),"Document Created - Subject -" & Req_Title.Text,DataCardValue39.Text); SubmitForm(frmEditRequest) 

 

Error : TitleError.png

 

If I only submitForm, it will submit but with the email, it is not working. (Email sent to user but form not saved)

I used Office365.SendEmail and then submits form but the same issue.

 

Any help will be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

I used to send email on OnSuccess event of form but it is not sent.

    Hi @panand99,

    Do you fire a flow to send an email via clicking the "Submit" button?

    I have made a test on my side, and don't have the issue that you mentioned. The screenshot as below:9.JPG

    Please take a try to execute your PowerAppsRequest.Run() function separately, and then check if the email sent well.

    In addition, please consider take a try to submit your form data into your SP list using Patch function instead of SubmitForm function, then try your formula again, check if the issue is solved. Please modify your formula as below:

    PowerAppsRequest.Run(
     User().Email,
     textBody.Text & Proper(User().FullName),
     "Document Created - Subject -" & Req_Title.Text,
     DataCardValue39.Text
    );
    Patch(
     'YourSPList',
     Defaults('YourSPList'),
      frmEditRequest.Updates
    )

    If the issue still exists, please consider take a try to re-create a new app, and add your flow connection within it, then try it again, check if the issue is solved.

     

    Best regards,

    Kris

    Actually, This is not the issue. My email is not sent when I used this formula:

     

    Submit button OnSelect: PowerAppsRequest.Run(User().Email,textBody.Text  & Proper(User().FullName),"Document Created - Subject -" & Req_Title.Text,DataCardValue39.Text); SubmitForm(frmEditRequest)

    If you want a title, Make sure that you did add the parameter for the title in flow sequence (Ask in Power App) and pass a value successfully.

    I tried to save form in sharepoint online list. If I remove the validation of "Title" then it is not saved the value in it.

    Can you explain the issue a bit more?

    Where are you trying to save the form?

    If it's in SharePoint List, then edit list settings and set the title to not required. As of now, the title field is mandatory
