Send email with options

Posted on by 6

Hello, I am trying to send an email with options (APPROVE or REJECT). Where within the body of this email is an adaptive card payload that has all of the necessary information to make the decision. Everything is rendering fine when I send it to myself. However, when I send the email with options to another member in my domain, the body of the email shows up with the adaptive card correctly formatted, but the actionable buttons (APPROVE or REJECT) are no longer displayed.

 

Not sure what this issue here, but I imagine it is something to do with access rights/permissions.

 

I originally wanted to explore using the action Start and Wait for an Approval. But I don't like that in the details of this action I can only upload a text. For example, I would appreciate if it was able to allow me to design an actionable message in the actionable message designer and then upload this JSON payload to the details section to have it display a more user-friendly approval message. That is besides the point now though, I really just need help answering the first question ... how to get my email options to display when they are sent to someone other than myself.

    Thank you this is very helpful. But I feel like there has to be a way to do this with the send email with options action built into the outlook connector in Power Automate. It wouldn't make any sense for this to be an action if the options only rendered when the email was sent to myself.

    You can build your own form, it maybe a little over kill though. I made a how to guide here https://dev.to/wyattdave/how-to-create-your-own-form-with-power-automate-4546
