Extracting Forms Responses to Email

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello All,

 

I'm new to Forms and Power Automate and was wondering if the following was possible.  I have a form with numerous safety questions.  They are all Yes / No answers but a No response opens a Comments box where further detail is added.  I can get the system to email me notification of a form submission but I'd like to extract all the comments into the body of the mail.  Can I get it to automatically include just the completed comments boxes or do I need to point to every single comments box and see the blanks as well as completed?

 

Thanks in advance

Baz

    Hi @BazMan You can use the parallel branching in Power Automate. Below is my suggested way:

    1. Create a Flow on trigger of Submit Response of MS Flow and get the response:

    2. Initialize the Array varilable of type Array:

    3. Add parallel branch to check if question has no response if question has no response then add the comment in the array, refer the below screenshot:

    4. Use the Join to make array to string:

    5. Add the output of the join in the body:

    Below is my summited responses:

    And below is the email I have received

    amitprajapati_6-1621664141475.png

     

     

    Now you will only received only those comment for those related response is NO.

     

    Hope this help, do verify the answer.
