Greetings,

I wanted to ask the community if something i want to do is possible in PowerApps. I have made a Leave_Request app, and i have an issue with the confirmation button. I want the users, when they press the submit button, to receive a confirmation mail, that their request was sent successfully. Furthermore, i want the same button to send the admins an email, that the specific user applied for a leave request so that they can approve or reject and when they make the decision, to inform again the user with an email.

I know that it is possible with a Flow in Power Automate, but is it possible within PowerApps?

Kind Regards,

Thanks in advance

Hi @ChristosKarak

Create a new flow from template and select Powerapp Button.

Add a new step Send email notification,

In each field inside the step add ask to powerapps content.

Inside the app, select a button and add Action -> Power Automate
When added, it will ask you three in

Hi @ChristosKarak ,

You do not need a Flow. Connect the Office365Outlook connector and then you can do something like this

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2( User().Email, "Request Received", "Your body text here", {Cc:"YourAdminEmail"} )

Hello,

Would someone be able to give me a modified formula so that when the submitter receives the email notification, the email doesn't look like they sent it to themselves?

The formula works wonderfully for me, but when I receive the confirmation the email shows from me. I want it to say something like PowerApps form, or something generic like Microsoft.

Basically I created powerapps forms for my office so that when a staff member submits a request in my form, the email confirmation just lets them know that our administration team has received their request. And so it's a little confusing when the email they receive has their name in the from. If that makes sense?

Right now, I'm using this formula:
Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2( User().Email, "Request Received", "Your body text here")

If anyone can help me that would be much appreciated.
