Hi,
I have a flow that has an html table created from an excel file in onedrive. I want to send a text messages sms with the html table information to each of my unique contact, so what are my options? maybe a link? or an picture of the table. how can I do it? Thank you!
Hi there,
To send an SMS message with the HTML table information to each of your unique contacts, you have a few options:
Send a link to the HTML table: You can upload the HTML table to a website or hosting service and then send the link to each of your contacts. This way, they can view the table in their web browser by clicking on the link. However, this method requires that your contacts have internet access and a device that can open the link.
Send an image of the table: You can take a screenshot of the HTML table and send it as an image to your contacts. However, this method might not be practical if the table is large or has a lot of details, as the image might become too small and difficult to read.
Send the table data as plain text: You can extract the data from the HTML table and send it as plain text in the SMS message itself. This method might be more practical for smaller tables with less complex formatting, as the data can be easily read in the message.
To implement any of these options, you can use Microsoft Power Automate (formerly known as Microsoft Flow). You can create a flow that retrieves the data from the Excel file in OneDrive and then sends the SMS messages with the appropriate content to each of your contacts. Depending on the option you choose, you might need to use additional actions or connectors in your flow, such as HTML to text conversion or image conversion.
