User text input to email

Hi,

 

I need help on something, here is what I'm trying to do :

 

  • I want the users to be able to input text in the published report
  • And when they press the button (automate I guess?) it send an email with the current report values selection + the user input text

I feel there is no way to do it, can you enlight me?

 

Thanks for your help!

Hey @Anonymous ,

 

you can use a PowerApp for the input and then you can also send the data with a button in the PowerApp.

If you just want to send the values, then you can use a PowerAutomate button.

 

Both (PowerApp and PowerAutomate) are available as visuals within PowerBI.

 

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍

Thanks for the quick reply! Do you know if I can do that using the Power Apps standard version? I try something similar to what you said and I got a message that I was using premium features... And I couldn't identifiy what features it was exactly, maybe the link to power bi is premium?

Hey @Anonymous ,

 

premium is the data source that is used. If you use a relational data source like SQL Server his requires a premium license in PowerApps.

If you only use an Excel or a Sharepoint list, then you are good to go with the free license.

 

Hope that helped.

 

Best regards
