Send an email from PowerApps 12-05-2017 10:09 AM

I realize this is about a year late... but for others who are interested.  I have a gallery (list) of employees and when I select an employee it takes the user to their "details" screen. On that screen I put a mail icon with the OnSelect function set to:

Launch("mailto:"&SelectedEmp.'Email Address')

Where SelectedEmp is a variable for the selected record and 'Email Address' is (obviously) the column/field containing their email address. This will pop-up a new Outlook email with their name populated in the To: field of the email.

Hope this helps!

For allowing user to edit the Body of the email:

Add a RichTextEditor in the Screen. Then for Body refer to the RickTextEditor.

You can default the Text inside the RichTextEditor - using the weird html formats of PowerApps. But User can still change text and reformat before sending within the RichTextEditor box.

Example

ForAll(Gallery.AllItems,Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(EmailAddresssinGallery,"Subject",RichTextEditorSS,{From:From@email.address,Importance:"High"})

If you don't want to send to all, use a If after "SendEmailV2(" and use condition when to send email or not.

Hi Shane

I'm avidly watching and learning how to do PowerApps with you!

I have mastered (really Heather??) the sending of an Email with the Send button.

I have made the 'Consent Form' which is really good, but I would like to send a Cc or a Bcc to myself (as well as the client) and just can't seem to make the formula.

Currently it appears that this formula works; - Office365Outlook.SendEmail("heather@johnallen.com.au","Our First PowerApps Email","Message");{cc:EmailAddress.Text}    BUT on testing it, only the 'heather etc...email works.  the cc doesn't see the email I typed into the email address box.  I thought perhaps I should have done something in the actual email address box - but after Googling for HOURS I just can't figure it out.

I understand you'll have SO many questions, but would seriously appreciate any help that can be offered.

Cheers

H 🙂
