...Just want to send a weekly email that displays a table of posts from a Yammer group. I'd like the email to display the text formatting from the original Yammer Post. Here's what I have so far:

The mapped dynamic content in the Select action is the "Message List Message Message Body Rich" field.

item()?['body']?['rich']

I have the Is HTML flag set to Yes in the send Email action, however the text still displays funky:

Now what?

Thanks in advance,

Hi @kbarber,

Please refer to screenshot below to create the flow:

The expression of Post in the Create Html table should be:

item()?['Post']

The flow would run successfully as below:

The email would be sent as below:

Best regards,

Alice

Thanks @v-yuazh-msft,
The problem remains, however, that the email is not formatted. It still shows the html coding. How do I get the html to render? My users don't want to see the html code, and I'd prefer to not use plain text. Each original Yammer post has some text formatting that I would like to retain in the email.

Thanks again,
- Kurt

Did you ever find a solution to this, I am in the same position. It feels like it should be so easy to render this but all example are around tables, I've sorted the table but the content within the table that come from SharePoint are HTML encoded it seems, just need a way to HTML decode the final compose.
