    Thanks Ben. Is it crazy to think that with PA you could create an initialize variable action to get an email address from a table (which has many customers with emails and amounts of business done with us last month) and then when you click on that link in your email, it would be able to bring up an Outlook message with the email address in the TO field with a pre-defined subject and text in the body - say I wanted to thank someone for their business?

    • @sovereignsp
      @sovereignsp หลายเดือนก่อน

      Very possible! That actually not too difficult to do. Here’s what your link would look like (more or less): <a href="mailto:email@example.com?subject=Thank%20You%20for%20Your%20Business&body=Dear%20Customer,%0A%0AThank%20you%20for%20your%20business!%20We%20appreciate%20your%20support.%0A%0ABest%20regards,%0A[Your%20Name]">Send Email</a> With this, you can see the “email@example.com” would be the customers email or the variable. Then, after “subject=“, that will be the subject. %20 and other symbols are spaces and other special characters, as the message needs to be “encoded” because it’s technically a link. Finally, “body=“ will be the body of the email message. :) Of course, you can replace any of this message with the dynamic content from your flow! If I didn’t explain this well enough let me know and I’d be happy to explain it better. You can also email me at ben.fetters@sovereignsp.com

      @sovereignsp 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@ederjimenez8 Oh okay, well awesome! Here are my thoughts, hopefully they are helpful: - one option is to use html and create an html file that contains all the data that you would need, then convert that into a PDF. Might take a little more work, but you can make the files how you would need them, with repeating sections/table in html. There's been a few times when I've had to go this route and it works great once you get the html right. - You've probably tried this, but creating a onpremise gateway connection with Power Automate? That could help solve some of the issues related to storing data on premise. Hopefully this is helpful! If you have any more questions, I'd be happy to help.:) Best of luck!

      Are you asking how you can insert a link to a different document? Right now, really the only way to do it is to at the text control and put the link into the control. You can format the text so that it is blue and underlined so that it looks like a link. But, if you convert the document to a PDF, the link will still work really well. Was that what you were asking or am I off?

Based on excel cell values, we need to skip few pages from the word document template. Is it possible to do using Power Automate? 2. Is it possible to do this using word document template residing in desktop and excel file residing in desktop instead of sharepoint. Thanking you in anticipation.

    • @sovereignsp
      @sovereignsp 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Great questions! As long as you add the fields as I do in the video, it doesn't matter where they are in the document, so yes, it "skip a few pages". As for the excel file, you'd technically need to use a desktop flow to get data from an excel file that is on your desktop, but you could use OneDrive instead of SharePoint and still do a Cloud flow (the type of Power Automate flow I use in the video). let me know if you have any other questions or need anymore help on this, I'd love to help!
