wait for response on adaptive cards in Outlook?

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 186

Because of 'reasons', a unit doesn't want to use Teams as part of an approval process (don't ask). 

Using adaptive cards in Outlook is an option, but can the flow be paused to wait for a response from "send email" or do I have to split the flow in to two parts, the first ending on the "send email" and then a second triggered on the http action POST from the adaptive card?

    Hi,
    I've been looking for a solution to wait inside a flow because I'm inside a loop when sending out emails... the only approach I found so far is via the "Start and wait for approval" but this seems to introduce a massive lag between the Approval being created and the email arriving.   This is my 'reason' to push for an email only solution.
     
    The spit flow approach actually works really well in my experience, so I am very close now to re-engineering my solution to switch over to this approach.
