Hi Matt1122

Regarding your HTML question, your observation is correct.

I tend to get my HTML sorted before putting it into Power Automate and then running tests and tweaking things from there.

I use programs like Notepad ++ to test my designs before they go into Power Automate (save the file as a *.html for testing in your web browser).

If the URL is still an issue, try removing the @ (see below).

Output:

Click onto 'Click here' results in ID 3 (which is correctly drawn from SharePoint):

Hope that helps?

Cheers

Damien

Hi Damien_Rosario

Thanks for your help!

Your answer is partially correct. I have mentioned this scenario in my query as well. So by using this approach I am getting proper href link in my incoming emails. However the issue here is with HTML tags in MS Flow email template body like in your screenshot <p><a>Click here</a></p>.

What I am trying to do here is to have href link in incoming emails and no HTML tag view in MS Flow email template body 🙂 Hope you get it.

By the way I am currently running my flows using this approach only.
