    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    There is no way to change the Email subject and then forward it, but you can change the Email subject, get the email body and send it, for example:

    You can edit the subject in the compose action and then put it in the Send an email action.

    Hi thanks for the reply, l am trying to strip the original subject matter out and replace it with the subject "Alarms".

     

    I am trying to get all of the automated alarms that l currently arrive in my inbox moved to a folder. 

    Once they are in the folder l want to take the body of the automated alarm and send it to a call logging system.

    The call logging system will only accept the emails if they have the subject of Alarms.

     

    In the screenshot that you provided in the *Subject field you have Outputs

    I don't seem to be able to add that is it just for reference or am l doing something wrong?

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Maybe the Compose did not load, are you still have this issue now?

    If still exist, you can use the expression: 

    outputs('Compose')
