Power Automate to generate a reply to email from SharePoint

37 Views Asked by At

I have a SharePoint folder which contains files in .eml format. These email files need to be replied to and currently users need to preview/download the file and then they can respond. I am looking for a solution to use Power Automate to generate a 'Reply to email (V3)' action to function directly from the SharePoint folder. I have created a column in the SharePoint library with a button to trigger the flow. I am now trying to create a flow that will get the selected file and then automatically open a response to the email. I am struggling as the file is saved in .eml format (it can be changed to .msg but when a file was downloaded it wouldn't open as an email) and the message ID and body cannot be extracted. I have tried converting the file using 'base64ToString' function but this does not appear to be working. If it is not possible to generate a Reply to email could I at least get the flow to download the file. One other thing I've noticed is when the button is pressed to run the flow I need to confirm this in a panel appearing on the right, does this need to happen every time as I am trying to reduce the number of clicks to work the email.
