Building a flow that will extract a link from an Outlook email

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by

As the title states, I am trying to see if its possible to create a flow that will extract a link from an email coming into Outlook. 

 

The containing emails are always formatted the same and the link will always be contained in the text "View Research"

 

Is this something that can be done with Power Automate?

    Hi @AdvOfJet 

     

    Actually quick easily if they have the same format all the time.

     

     

    1. Setup an Automated Flow that triggers on emails from an Inbox (and some account)

    2. Use an HTML to Text action to change the body into Text

    3. Build your Parse to get the data from the Text you want out.

    4. Use it how you want

    5. Done
