Extract Job Description from email to Column in Excel

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I am new to Microsoft flow and do not know to code. I am trying to make a flow such that when I receive an email with a specific subject line it records its subject, date received, and then the job description in the email into a row in excel. So if the email has content like start date, start time, location, and job description, I need to make only the job description and its following description show up in the sheet, not the rest of the body. 

 

Can anyone help with this. I have the first two parts date and subject done, but I do not know how to filter content from the email body.

    Hi there, 

     

    It is called Power Automate now - but we do still refer to the workflows themselves as "Flows". 

     

    In order to help you, we will need to see what your email body looks like. Is it preceded with a particular string? Is it a certain length? Is it in a table?
