Hi
 
I need to use the trigger “When a new email arrives to a group” (Office 365 Groups), and I need to extract the information from the email subject line. How can I achieve this?
 
Thanks

    You can extract the subject line directly from the trigger When a new email arrives to a group.

    Add a Compose action and select Subject from the dynamic content. Then use expressions like split() to extract the part of the subject you need, depending on its format.

    I cannot guarantee this will work since I cannot get it to trigger, but try this:
     
    I believe the subject is stored in the Conversation Topic value from the Get a group conversation action.

    Hi @Kalathiya
     
    your suggestion is useless, as the trigger "When a new email arrives to a group" behaves differently than the trigger "When a new mail arrives (V3)".
