In a SP list, I have a multi-line column type where we enter paragraphs with spaces between the paragraphs. Send Email (V1) correctly shows these spaces . Send Email (V2) runs the sentences together and basically makes this V2 useless for my situation.
Is there a setting I'm missing or is this how it is?

hi @bryanc78 you can use HTML br to do a line break

Doesn't that creates line breaks for text I enter in the flow itself? But what about a data field I bring in from a SharePoint list? How do I get those line breaks to appear?
If you look at the below Evaluation Notes field, that field in SP has say 4 paragraphs with line breaks in-between each paragraph. I need those line breaks to also show up in the email
@bryanc78 what you can do is add a compose value to replace your /n or ?n to <br>, this can be made using expression
your expresion could be like replace('YOUR SHAREPOINT COLUMN HERE', '/n','<br>')
then you can use the compose output to send it to mail.

That worked like a charm. The last compose did not have the code visible but I just used the original code and replaced it with decode.
Thank you for taking the time to create this tutorial. Very useful!
@bryanc78 excellent, is a good new 🙂

OMG this is exactly what I need. Thank you very much
Hi, I tried following the above steps , but looks like neither decodingUriComponent nor uricomponenttoString is working. The mail shows the <br> tag in the body as-is. My multiline field in sharepoint is plain-text. However, I tried with Rich Text as well, but that came as all HTML tags. Please help.
