Get Emails (V3) - Find "TOP 1" email in a folder, the original source email

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by marklunn

I have an automated flow that runs when a new email arrives. It checks a reference in the new email to lookup an email with the same reference to return the original sender, so I can automatically forward the new email to them.

 

The issue I have is the "Top 1" option doesn't have an "Order By" option, so it returns the most recent email.

 

Is there a way I can order the results by received date ascending or exclude "RE:" and "FW:" subject lines to get the original source sender?
