Variable to format name from O365 profile into initials

[crmart1n_mx]

I'm looking to build out a rather simple flow that will take certain information from a MS form and output it as an email sent from a shared mailbox.

My question however, is that for the email signature of the outgoing email, I'd like it to be in the format of "First Name/First Initial Last Initial" - example, "Chris/CM"

Is there a way to perhaps build a variable or something that if I were to extract their name using the Office 365 Get user profile function?

Thank you so much in advance.

Hi @crmart1n_mx ,

Maybe you could try the following expression:

concat(first(split(outputs('Get_user_profile_(V2)')?['body/displayName'],' ')),'/',substring(first(split(outputs('Get_user_profile_(V2)')?['body/displayName'],' ')),0,1),substring(last(split(outputs('Get_user_profile_(V2)')?['body/displayName'],' ')),0,1))

I have made a test for your reference.
