Hi everyone,

I have used Microsoft 365 Outlook connector to send emails. The scenario was as follows:

On my login page, I have a given a option if a user is new then they can register themselves on the application:

New User Registration Page/Screen:

After the user enters all the details and clicks on Submit, then I am using the Microsoft Outlook 365 connector (instead of Power Automate)

For the email: I am using the same email that is been entered in the email field. The email is sent but I just wanted to make 1 change to it:

Instead of displaying the current logged in user details (here my name: as the connector is using the Outlook login details) can I set some other name like the application name (Login App) so that the user gets to know that it's about the application that they had registered.

Hi @Sidhant_02
The easiest way is to hard code the app name on AppOnStart

Set( gblAppGlobalName, { ApplicationName: "My Project Software", ApplicationID: "17718e8c-f2e0-40e1-8be0-f1ab03e73ef7", SessionID: Text( Now(), "ddmmyy-hhmmss" ) } );

And reuse gblAppGlobalName.ApplicationName

Office365Outlook.SendEmail("your@email.com", "Subject", "Body of the email, App name is: " & gblAppGlobalName.ApplicationName)

Hi @Ramole ,
Thanks for the reply, I did try the solution that you have mentioned:
But I was hoping to get the application name like this: (is it possible?)
The email can be optional (which will retrieve the mail of admin which is defined in SharePoint list with User role: Admin)

Hi @Sidhant_02,

Yes, you can use the Power Apps for Makers connector to get the app name.
