Hi,
I am trying to create a flow wich:
When i reveived a e-mail in outlook, he to create a issue in jira and fill some fields with data of body of e-mail, for example: "Name", "E-mail", "Start date", "Due Date"...
This e-mail will send of a other software, wich i am control the format of the body and create a standart.
This flow is possible?
Hi @douglas07
Yes creating a Jira ticket from an incoming email is possible.
The fields in the body of the email should have some kind of a structured format.
If you need a start, go to the Templates section and search for Jira. You will get several pre-built templates using Jira. Probably you could take a little assistance from the template called "Create an issue in Jira for a flagged email".

Hi @VJR , Thanks for the feedback.
I tried to use this template, but I understood that with it I can define the fields that will always be filled in the same way. for example, in the image below, if I put "name" : "Douglas", every task created turns with the field Name = Douglas, but what I wanted is for the power automate to look for this data in the body of the email.
In this case, the email would always come in this format:
Client name: -------
Email: ------
Telephone: ---------
Start date: --------
Due date: ----------
Hi @douglas07
As I mentioned the Templates was just as a starting point to begin with and will not give everything you are looking for in the requirements. 🙂
You will need to
- Read the body of the incoming email
- Using string functions (like Text action or Expressions) extract the actual value of client name from the string Client name: -------
- Then use that result inside the Jira action.
This will always dynamically use any client name that is present in the incoming email and create the ticket according to that client.

Great @VJR !
This is the point, I have not been able to use these functions to search for data that will constantly change. I can search for data that will always be in the email, such as "phone", but I couldn't create a code to search for your answer, which will change with each email.
Hi @douglas07
You can take a look at the solution given in the below post
Using a flow to extract email body details
The inputs are similar to what you need so this should help.

Hi @douglas07
Yes it will work.
You extract the strings as mentioned in the other post (Using a flow to extract email body details)
Then pass those to the Jira.
Post back with what you've got so far so that myself or anyone else might be able to help you achieve that
