Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

I have set up a rule to forward emails from a particular email sent to me to a teams channel. the channel show the email subject line, but not the content of the original message i received.

Q: how can i show the content of the email in the teams channel, vs it being attached as 'view original email?

Thx.

Building flows

Instead of a rule in Outlook, try this:

Build a new flow in Power Automate as an Automated Cloud Flow with the trigger "When a new email arrives (V3)" and fill in the relevant information about your mailbox and the sender:

Then add an action "Post a card in a chat or channel" and fill in the relevant Teams information:

For the adaptive card body, I used the following to populate the card with the message subject, the sender, the timestamp it was received, and the message body:

{
    "type": "AdaptiveCard",
    "body": [
        {
            "type": "TextBlock",
            "size": "Medium",
            "weight": "Bolder",
            "text": "@{triggerOutputs()?['body/subject']}"
        },
        {
            "type": "ColumnSet",
            "columns": [
                {
                    "type": "Column",
                    "width": "auto"
                },
                {
                    "type": "Column",
                    "items": [
                        {
                            "type": "TextBlock",
                            "weight": "Bolder",
                            "text": "@{triggerOutputs()?['body/from']}",
                            "wrap": true
                        },
                        {
                            "type": "TextBlock",
                            "spacing": "None",
                            "text": "Received: @{triggerOutputs()?['body/receivedDateTime']}",
                            "isSubtle": true,
                            "wrap": true
                        }
                    ],
                    "width": "stretch"
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "type": "TextBlock",
            "text": "@{triggerOutputs()?['body/body']}",
            "wrap": true
        }
    ],
    "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json",
    "version": "1.6"
}

This should do what you're looking for.
