Rich text option included with Send approval email

Submitted by Lee on โ€Ž03-27-2017 08:53 AM

Would be nice to be able to have the option 'Is HTML'  in the 'send an approval email' so that there can be consistency between 'send an approval email' and also 'send an email' when both are required to be used within the same flow.

Status: Completed

You can now include rich text in approvals. Techincally, it's markdown not HTML, but it lets you do the same scenarios: https://flow.microsoft.com/blog/rich-approvals-text-and-multiselect/

Can we get an update, or at least an acknowledgement that you recognize that this option is missing?

We need the option to include html markup in the Approval Email body just like it currently works for the Outlook Send Email action.

@Lee & @RKushner It's not yet there, but I maybe it will be possible when the modern approvals will evolve some more!

@RKushner: This is a duplicate idea, https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Flow-Ideas/Is-HTML-option-included-with-Send-approval-email/idi-...

Capture.PNGWe really need the ability to format the body of the new approval email action that was provided last month. We've taken 3 steps forward witht the new functionality (which works great!) but one giant leap backwards, as our emails look very jumbled. There's no way I can get my users to review emails that look like this and some of my users have too many approval request to open each and every link.
