Hello first of all thanks for reading. I need help with the following.

I have an application in powerapps and one of the fields is multiline (rich text) I want that when that field is saved a word is filled but with the line breaks included.

example I fill the field like this :

1- Hello

2-How are you

And the populate word goes like this 1-Hello 2- How are you. It passes without line break. Some help?

Not sure if I have understood your requirement correctly, however, here is an example that you can use. Please note that the flow connectors do not alter the original formatting in HTML. So, if you have list tags in your original HTML, flow retains them. Following is my sample flow;
1. The original HTML code. It contains formatted list which is similar to bulleted text in word.
2. Convert HTML to text.

3. Convert the text from multiline to single line with 'replace', 'concat' and 'split' functions.
4. The final output is;
Hope this helps. If this solves your issue, please accept this reply as 'Solution'.

Regards.

Place this in the expression for each line break / line feed you want:

decodeUriComponent('%0A')

Use an expression like this

concat('Hello',decodeUriComponent('%0A'),'How are you')

The result looks like this:
