Get User Email from Wunderlist?

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I'm currently building a flow to send reminders from a team-accessible Wunderlist. Unfortunately, the built-in reminders for Wunderlist don't do what we need them to.

The problem I'm having is that, despite there being an API that seems to return what I need:

Everything I need!

I don't have access to anything similar through Flows. All I can get back from Wunderlist is the unique numeric ID, which isn't the most helpful. Does anyone know if there's a way to get the kind of information specified above (Name/Email, primarily)? Either a list of everyone or by ID?

Can you screenshot this part of your flow?

There isn't really much to screenshot for this section. I call the below "Get task", which succeeds:

One of the outputs from that Action is AssigneeID. Given that AssigneeID, is there any Wunderlist Action that will return me a Name/Email? Or the other way around: given a Name/Email, is there a Wunderlist Action that will return me a UserID?

This is what the "Get Task" action returns, all these should be accessible-

The screenshot in your first post is referencing the User API, which is accessed via the HTTP connector. That gets into some more advanced stuff there though. Don't have time to go through it right now, but do a search on making API calls using the HTTP connector and that should get you on the right path.

Hi @Anonymous,

Currently, the value returned by Get task action in MS Flow does not include Name/Email, Main.

The following is a reference link for the related properties of the task that Get task action can return:

I am afraid that through Wunderlist-related actions, it is currently impossible to achieve your needs.

If you want MS Flow to extend the Wunderlist connector to get user information, you could post this idea in the Flow Ideas forum, so it might be considered for future releases.

Also, as @SCTdan mentioned, you could consider using HTTP action to get the value of the property you want.

Best Regards,
