Hi all,

 

I have created a flow as and when an employees completes watching the trainings from the links available via canvas PowerApps, they will submit the MS Form.

Once they submit MS Form, mail is getting triggered with PDF copy but their name & date is not picking up(as of now showing blank)

    Hi There,

     

    Ensure that your MS Form has fields to capture the employee's name and the date. Then, when configuring the Power Automate flow make sure after the "When a new response is submitted" trigger, add the "Get response details" action for MS Forms and use the Response Id from the trigger. In the action where you're creating the PDF or forming the content for the email, reference the employee's name and date fields using dynamic content. They should appear as outputs from the "Get response details" action.

    Verify that these fields in MS Form are mandatory, ensuring they are always filled. If you're using a third-party tool or a custom connector to generate the PDF, ensure that it is correctly mapping the employee's name and date fields from the form response.

    By following these steps, the employee's name and date should populate in the triggered email with the PDF. Always test your flow to ensure proper functionality.

     

     

    Please give kudos and mark as solution if it helps.  

      

    Thanks,

    Hi @sandeepstw ,

     

    Thank you for your inputs.

     

    As you suggested, it is been followed in the flow but the output of 'Get response details' I will check.

     

    Thanks again!

    Hi @Sandeep, This step "reference the employee's name and date fields using dynamic content. They should appear as outputs from the "Get response details" action." I'm not getting where to add in the existing flow.

     

    Can you guide me where I can utilise at which action of step.

     

    Thank you

    Hi @sandeepstw ,

    Problem where it happened is 

     

    a) I created a SharePoint list but I missed to Add the required columns in SharePoint list similar to which I have created in MS Form.

     

    b) I had uploaded MS Word (training template) in SharePoint list. But in Insert - Quick parts - Document Property, I can not see the required columns as I did not added columns which are required to capture in MS Word template based on submission of MS Form(i.e., columns/data which are given in MS Form)
