No bother at all...happy to help!

 

So, if you want the Email to happen with the submit of the form - first I would make sure that you are putting the formula in the OnSuccess of the form.  You don't want to send an email saying all is "good", if the submit fails.

 

Next, when you are outside of the Form, you should NOT refer to the internal DataCardValue controls.  Instead you should reference the LastSubmit or Updates property of the Form.  And in this case you would be interested in the LastSubmit.

 

So this would be what you are looking for in the OnSuccess action:

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(yourForm.LastSubmit.'Employee details'.Email, "Hi", "hello")

Change the yourForm to the name of your form and, if the 'Employee details' is not the name of the column in your dataSource, then change accordingly.

@Priyasantra 

SendEmailV2 will send email as HTML by default, so place the line break tags in your formula:

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(
    MyTrainingGallery1.Selected.'Intro Trainer'.Email, 
    "Introduction Training for New Joiner", 
    "Hello "& MyTrainingGallery1.Selected.'Employee Details'.DisplayName & 
       "<br>All the Tools access has been completed/requested And the Introduction Training for the New joiner " & MyTrainingGallery1.Selected.'Employee Details'.DisplayName & 
       " can be started.<br>", 
    {Cc:"xxxx@microsoft.com"}
)

 

I hope this is helpful for you.

Hello @RandyHayes  

 

This has worked like a charm and this why I call you a super star. Thanks again for this help

 

I have one last query i would like to add it in the same email and that is 

 

I am creating this application for Onboarding which has 4 different stages 

 

1. New onboarding 

2. Access Toolss

3. Technical training 

4. Onboarding completion

 

Every stage there is a form and each time a form is submitted it sends an email to the feilds that I declare in the Sendemail function - MyTrainingGallery1.Selected.'Intro Trainer'.Email,. So when a form is submitted this function sends an email to the person field which is "Intro Trainer". I have cracked every thing and this email function works great.

 

 

Now if you look at the below screenshot you will see that there are 4 buttons at the left hand side. The first button is "New Onboarding". When clicked on the "New Onboarding" it gives a form as shown below, Now I wanted that when I fill out the form and click on submit it should trigger an email to the person column "Employee details"

 

For example the above email which you helped adding a break tag. If you see the email is sent to MyTrainingGallery1.Selected.'Intro Trainer'.Email

 

I am currently trying something like  Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(DataCardValue2.Selected.Value, "Hi", "hello")

 

For example the above email which you helped adding a break tag. If you see the email is sent to 

Datacardvalue 2 is for the employe details data card. But this does not work. Could you help me with this one last thing?
