Office365 Outlook Connector Not Recognized - Sending an Email Receipt Involving Multiple Items

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 71

I am working on an email receipt flow involving multiple items. I am attempting to write this flow from inside of the app so it would be triggered by the order submission button instead of the creation of an item but I am struggling to make that work on my button on select. My button on select wouldn't recognize the Office365Outlook connector. I've added the connection, then tried to write the operation "Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2" but it says "Office365Outlook not recognized" and ". cannot be applied to error values".

 

I have another post in PA forum trying the independent flow but that doesn't appear to be a good solution. 

 

I also can't figure out how to get the flow to trigger on "OnSelect" of my exiting button instead of choosing between "yes/No", "Text" etc...

Can anyone advise?

    Hi @ayattaw 

     

    Can you please share a picture of the Connector added to your app.

     

    2nd, do this. Just add a button. In the OnSelect, just type Office365 and wait... let intellisense make a suggestion. If none of the suggestions are the Connector, then it doesn't see it as valid in your project and thats the issue.

     

    That or the name you are trying to use is not correct (which makes sense with the error), and hence why I want to see the connector name and also see if you can get IntelliSense to tell you what name to use

     

    Usually Data Connectors etc are specific to their formatted name.


    If I have helped you, I would really appreciate if you please Mark my answer as Resolved/Answered, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

    Cheers

    Hi! Yes, I have manually added the connector first (Office365Outlook), then I go to the formula box which actually suggests the connector, then tells me it isn't recognized. It also makes a bunch of suggestions then tells me they cannot be applied to an error value (the error being the connector not recognized).  The first screenshot is from my data connections list, the second the suggestions in my formula bar.

    Yes @ayattaw  thank you

     

    So even if you pick one of the intellisense drop downs it says the same thing?

     

    I would recommend if you haven't, dropping the Datasource and re-adding it.

    Also, where are you typing this at(like in what property of what control)

    I've tried removing and re-adding. When I try to re-add, it does list 3 iterations of my email, but I've never had an issue when that happened before. 

     

    I am using it in the OnSelect property of a button.
