Hi, the workaround works perfectly but power automate tries to sabotage my work. I made all the four Compose things above and after saving it gets changed by itself from

outputs('Compose_1')

to

outputs('Compose_1')?['$']

which is causing red exclamation and the flow just stuck there and nothing.

Is there another workaround about this or a fix for my problem ?

Hi, Thank you !

In one step :

decodeUriComponent(replace(encodeUriComponent(pick_your_MultiLine_value_here),'%0A','<br>'))

@Obo 

Thanks you are a life saver. 

This is how I solved it at my place:

we need two compose (German "Verfassen") steps

fx :  replace(outputs('Verfassen_5'),decodeUriComponent('%0A'), '<br />')

 

That's it
