Hi,

I want to extract a body and emails from the below string in power automate :

<div class="ExternalClassFCD14869688A40F2A3F9CD309841D521"><p>here is the comment <a href="mailto:; test1@xxx.com">surname, name</a> <a href="mailto:;test2@xxx.com"> surname, name</a></div>

I want to extract 'here is the comment' part as Body .

And I want to extract those email ids and atore them in a variable which I defined already in the flow. (Here's only 2 mails are present, but it could be multiple) .

I'm getting error. (Maybe cause of the &nbsp part present in the string)

Hi,

Please share your code, if you say you are getting an error, but do not share your flow, your code, the flow, the flow run, then its really just a waste of time for us to read.

There are ways to help if we fully understand for instance

to get the here is the comment

you would use

trim(split(split(mystring, '<p>')[1], '<a href')[0])

So what this would do is split based on <p> which would give you 2 parts [0] and [1] where [1] now starts with her is the comment which is why after the first split I put the [1]

Then I split by the <a href, which now creates 2 parts [0] which has your string you want and [1] which doesn't

I used trim becasue there is a space after comment

But the same type of parsing for your other stuff

If this helps please mark so.

just follow the same mindset of parsing
