Flow Owner - Distributionb List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Aparikh80

Hello 

I am trying to create a new flow where if a user submits a Microsoft Forms submission it sends an email to Person A, from leads@mycompany.com (which is a distribution list ) vs my name.  I am using send email v1 

 

I have seen multiple ways to do this but I am not sure what I am doing wrong.

    Hi @Aparikh80 ,

     

    At present, we can only use the personal account to configure the connection of Send email action. We cannot use Group email or other accounts to configure this action.

     

    If you are a member of this list, you could try to use your account to create a connection and configure distribution list in Send as field. Here you need to have the appropriate permissions, please refer to the link below:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/admin/manage/send-email-as-distribution-list?view=o365-worldwide

     

    Best Regards,
