Trying to format a Teams Channel message in Teams planner Task

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 4
I'm very new to Power Automate and teaching myself.   This is probably a simple fix, but I just can't seem to make it work. 
 
When a post comes into a team's channel, I am generating a task in Planner.     The problem is the message is not really readable. This is a sample.    I also need to tie any attachments that are in the post.

    Looks like the source of your issue is that the Teams message is the content of an HTML email. Stripping the HTML in Power Automate is a non-trivial task, though there is now an Action that can do it automagically:
     
     
    Using the output of this action should strip the HTML and give you text that you can work with in Planner.
