Button to launch email

Posted on by rpawliko

I'm not quite able to get a button formula to do what I want.

Given the code "mailto:email.address?subject=text&body=text"

I'm attempting to have the following:

email address - hard code

subject - Concatenate(text & Field.value)

body - text

I've been unable to get the body to populate. it ends up with the Subject being both the subject and body.

Current Button OnSelect Code below:

Launch(Concatenate("mailto:myemail@ourdomain.com?"&
($"subject= Suite Reservation Request for ". ThisItem.LocationDayDate) &
"body=Please%20reserve%20a%20suite%20for%20the%20following%20people:%0D%0D"))

Please help if you can.

Hi @rpawliko,

Please try the following adjustment:

Launch( "mailto: myemail@ourdomain.com", { Subject: "Suite Reservation Request for " & ThisItem.LocationDayDate, Body: "Please reserve a suite for the following people:" } )

In order to concatenate text you don't have to combine the Concatenate function and the & operator. Concatenation can be done via the following approaches:

//Using the & operator: "Hello " & User().FullName //Concatenate function Concatenate("Hello ", User().FullName) //String interpolation $"Hello {User().FullName}"

If this solves your question, would you be so kind as to accept it as a solution.
Thanks!
