Dear community,
I am wondering if there is a method to use "Send e-mail with options" even when nobody answered.
We want Power Automate to perform a step that gets triggered with no user-action. (Like a passive approval)
Right now I set a duration of 5 days (P0Y0M5DT0H0M0S). This duration is needed to give people enough time for their decision.
Unfortunately I am experiencing this problem:
The operation "Switch" needs a succeeded input of "Send e-mail with options". In case of nobody was using the button inside the e-mail, "Switch" will get a TimedOut as input and the flow stops.
This is our basic idea:
basic idea
I found 2 possible solutions online but I don't know how to implement it correctly.
1.)
I think we just need something like this: Right next to "Switch" is an action that performs when nobody will answer.
Can you please tell me how to split the operation right after "Send e-mail with options"?
found online
2.)
Use an expression and tell "Switch" something like:
If output of "Send e-mail with options" is "TimedOut" do case Default.
How would that command look like?
Thank you very much and greetings from Germany

@Sailela difficult situation, what I'll try to do is create a sharepoint list and inside add every answer then in flow try to get that answers to compare.
