Bold part of text when using launch email client function

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 87

Hi, community 

    I created a htmltext label, which contains html text strings.  I am using Launch(Concatenate("mailto:","abc@domain.com"),"Subject","This is the subject",
"body",HtmlText1.HtmlText) to prefill the body of the emails with that htmltext label.

     The issue is that the htmltext formatting cannot be reflected in the email client (I am using outlook 2016 for mac). It only shows the source code as plain text in the email body e.g.<b>This text is bold</b

     Is there way to perserve the formatting or make html work? All I want is bold a part of text when using the launch function. If not is there a possible workaround for this?

 

Thanks,

    Hi @agent3154 

     

    You will not be able to do that with the Launch function

    It will send data in plaing text

     

    Try using Office365.SendEmailV2 action within PowerApps to directly send the email
