I've tried a few solutions from similar topics in the past, no joy.
I am building a simple power automate flow that monitors an inbox, and if it sees a specific Subject trigger phrase, it sends out an email to the "From" of the previous email. In the body of the email, I am trying to create a hyperlink that goes to a brief Google Form through a "pre-filled" url link.
I want to manipulate the pre-generated link to pre-fill in the customers email address and the technician they worked with ("From" and "CC" on the parent email)
But I can't get the final email to have an actual clickable URL. It constructs everything fine, but its just plain text.
When I try to roll it into an actual "hyperlink" using the little Link button, it creates a clickable URL, but it breaks the dynamically constructed content.
Thoughts?
I am struggling to snip out the last line of my source emails, do you have tip on the command I should use to grab the name at the end of the following email? They are always formatted the same;
I just forwarded the generated emails to my Gmail as well, and boom, there are the clickable URLs. My company has some funky protections in place preventing URLs from being URLs. Looks like you were in fact the solution, thanks for the help today!
Hi @NADamewood ,
I don't have an answer for that. This does work for me in Outlook 365 and also just tested through Gmail and works there too. Please consider marking my compose and concat() expressions as a solution if you found this helpful so others can find this too! This is a frequently asked question.
That also just generates regular text for me... Hrm. Maybe its a setting in my Outlook 365? I don't see anything in there about displaying HTML or plain text.
If I physically press a link button and insert a link, it does show up as a link though.
Could you provide a quick example? I tried using the Compose and it's output, but I didn't see any change.
It built the link just fine, but it didn't create a "clickable" link, it was still just text.
Hi @NADamewood ,
What I typically do in this situation is create the entire dynamic link in one or more compose actions above the Send Email (V2) action and in the email body, I reference the output of the final compose output that contains the entire dynamic link. Please let me know if this helps you keep going!
