Hello @ChrisMendoza,

 

Thank you for responding to my request.

It wasn't the email client - Because I tried multiple browsers, network, machines already.

I googled a little and learned HTML coding, found a solution and here is how I got it working for me.

Hi, 

 

Thank you for replying. I really appreciate you helping me.

 

My issue is reminder email for pending approval has the link (link be picked up from dynamic content - the link to respond to approval)

This link is not clickable in the reminder email.

 

I tried to embed it with HTML code doesn't work.

 

Also, for the above screen capture which @ChrisMendoza has attached that says results are coming from forms.

 

My results/link is different - right guys?

 

Fairly new to Power Automate, in fact power platform altogether.

 

kindly advise

@AshishJaiswal- You are attempting to use the 'Respond Link' from the 'Create Approval' correct? I was able to get a working link using the below.

@AshishJaiswal- There is no error message or any other indication? Can you post the output after a successful run?

Hi @ChrisMendoza @manuelstgomes,

 

I have defined error handling in my flow hence the flow will not fail

 

there is no error.

 

I tried using both 'Mail' & "Send an email V2' connector but still does not work

 

To the best i have tried html code - to embed the link to respond to approval

 

But no luck

Hello @ChrisMendoza @manuelstgomes 

 

Good catch - No link is clickable in the email - What could be the cause sir?

SPO link to item.gif

I tried using link to SPO item and that link is also not clickable

 

I tried using the code mentioned here - https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Link-with-address-of-Approval-Reject-requ...

 

No Luck

@AshishJaiswal- best guess I have is it is a setting in your email client; maybe links are disabled, have you tried sending to a different email?

I was just adding one line

 

<a href="@{outputs('Create_an_approval')?['body/respondLink']}">Approval Link</a>
