Hello,
I have a SharePoint list, with a field, where we normally add a lot of lines, in a structured way, like this:
Then we submit it and Microsoft Flow generates and sends an e-mail in Outlook to the added people with the above info included, but unfortunately, in the email, it doesn't come in a structured way, but like this, which is not readable for the people getting it at all:
Is there a possibility to set the Flow up in a way, that it forwards the field data in the same, structured way, like it was filled out in the SharePoint list?
Thanks
Peter
Hi @McElroy15
To be able to do that you need to add an additional line separation.
Something like this:
Line.
Second line.
Since the email uses markdown to format either:

Hi @McElroy15
I just noticed something in Microsoft's documentation:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/approvals-markdown-support
Markdown support among clients is inconsistent. The Power Automate team works to address these inconsistencies, however, inconsistencies remain. The following table lays out the known limitations among the supported clients.
The forced line breaks have different behavior on Outlook Desktop (works with the solution I mentioned above), but on others, it doesn't.
The solution for the other clients is:
"Make your text easier to read by breaking it up with paragraphs or line breaks. Enter two spaces prior to the line break to force most clients to start a new line."
I know inconsistencies are hard to deal with, but we cannot escape as per the documentation.
If I have answered your question, please mark your post as Solved.
