Using Flow to send out automatic emails on a weekly basis
Hi,
I am looking into creating an internal email course and looking for possibilities to do this in Office 365.
I would like to create an email course where people can sign up to get a weekly email over 4 weeks, where the email is sent out on a weekly basis based on when they signed up. I want it to be automatic when the mails are sent out and based on when they signed up, so that I don't have to manually keep track. I was thinking this could be done using Flow, but I cant find any templates or examples to follow to set up a time interval to where several emails are sent out.
Is this possible and how can I go about it? Is Flow the best way or are there other options? Thanks!
- Flow would work for this, yes.
You could perhaps use a SharePoint list, to which you add a new subscriber, then have a Flow that triggers when an item is added to that list.
The actions in the flow would then be something like:
- send an email (email 1)
- delay for 7 days
- send an email (email 2)
- delay for 7 days
- send an email (email 3)
- delay for 7 days
- send an email (email 4)
