HTML to text conversion adding extra \n

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Viji 21
I have a flow that is reading an email and parsing the content to take action.
When converting from HTML to text, power automate is adding an extra '\n' when there is a space in the line (col 80).
This '\n' is splitting a single line into 2. How to prevent this from happening.
 
Thanks

    Hi 
     
    I could not able to produce same issue you are facing when i tried in my system, but can you try this workaround if possible ?
     
    Like split the email body dynamic content using <br> as delimiter , for each splitted element, convert it to html to text conversion - see whether that works for you ?
     
    Thanks & Regards,

    Nived,
    I do not think it will work. I tried using only one line in the email and it still has the same issue. 

    Thanks
