Posted on by GD20

I am trying to pull the email addresses of a group contact from Outlook. For the Filter Query, I am using DisplayName eq 'Northeast Coaches'

Northeast Coaches is the name that I gave the group contact. When I run the flow, there is no output. I would like to to pull of the email from the group contact and place it into the To field for the Outlook Send an Email flow.

Hi @GD20 ,

Could you share a screenshot of the Flow configuration?

If you are using Get contacts action, DisplayName here refers to the DisplayName of a contact in the group instead of the name of group contact.

If you want to get the email address of all the contacts in the specified group, you could specify Folder id directly.

Image reference:

Expression reference:

items('Apply_to_each')['EmailAddresses'][0]['Address']

Hope it helps.

Best Regards,

Thanks for the help, here. This is where I am currently at:

I initially tried the expression but it gave me an error. The current method above does send the emails out, but, it sends to each individual person in that folder. Is there any way that I can consolidate it and have it send one email to everyone in the group?

Hi @GD20 ,

Generally, there may be multiple emails in contact, so I used ['EmailAddresses'][0]['Address'] to get the first email address in the contact.

If you want to send one email to everyone in contact group, you could refer to the configuration below.

Initialize the variable to store the email address, traverse the value of Get contacts.

Append all Address to the variable, ending with a semicolon.

Please try again.
