    When you used the Office365.SendEmail(To,Subject,Body,..) it is asking for you "Sent To"

     

    You can pass the requestor.selected.email in "To" and as well as pass the subject and body

    You can use Office365.sendemail to send the email.

     

    You need to add Office365 as a data scource
