Trigger flow with e-mail subject line

All,

 

I would like my flow to be triggered with a keyword: RAN:

 

However most of the meetings will contain additional keywords after RAN:

 

Example;

RAN:ROOM

RAN:SUB

RAN:READ

 

How can I insert my flow to only check the first three letters when starting the flow? Is this possible? 

 

Currently it is only starting when the subject line is RAN:

Hi @aishak12 

 

You can use trigger condition to determine if the topic is started by RAN. 

Only messages whose subject starts with RAN will trigger the flow.

I have made a test for your reference:

Hi @aishak12 ,

 

Subject Filter triggers the flow, when string contain in the subject line. In your case subject line contain additional keywords after RAN:. To solve this problem, add IF Condition to flow and validate the subject line. Here is one possible solution.
