Format text box to send emails

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 92

Hi everyone, me again! I have looked for answers to this but cannot seem to find one 😞

 

I have a SharePoint list, I have amended the Form with Powerapps and have a Power Automate Flow to send an external email based on the form info once it's saved onto SharePoint.

 

I have created a text box for people to fill in, and have entered that data into the body of the email.

 

Unfortunately, when the email is sent, it looses all formatting and looks ugly.

 

Is there any way I can keep the formatting? Ie, line breaks, bullet points etc when they are copied and pasted into the text box?

 

Thank you in advance! 🙂

    Hi @kchinnock ,

    Use the Rich Text Editor control for adding the inputs instead of a simple input control. This will not change the formatting of the content.

     

    If in case you are also storing the content on your sharepoint, make sure you are using a multi line input control with rich text property enabled.
