Insert edit list item URL into email body

Is it possible to insert a link in the email body to edit the current SharePoint list item in a flow email ?

  • Hi Ian Moran! There is no direct way at the moment, but you could craft your own link by using the ItemId. Make sure the mail is using HTML and then add something like this:

     

    <a href="https://contoso.sharepoint.com/teams/marketing/Lists/IssueTracker/EditForm.aspx?ID=<<<FLOW ITEMID TOKEN>>>">Edit item</a>

      This works if the EditForm is a SharePoint integration form. Is this as well possible if the App has been created from Data (which is as well a SharePoint list, but not integrated with customize forms)?

        If you mean a PowerApp to edit data then you can pass parameters to the PowerApp in the querystring of the PowerApp sharing link such as the list item ID. In PowerApps, check in onStart if Param(your parameter) is empty of not and if it isn't navigate to a screen with and edit form and show the record with the ID matching your Param.
