Cannot get Power BI User Email in Power Automate

Hi,

 

I have a problem getting Power BI user email.

 

I tested my Power Automate Flow with my email as a sender, and everything works fine, but when I try to set the user who triggers the flow as a sender my flow fails.

The flow fails because they can't find the user's email.

The Power BI User Email looks like this "XXXXXWt1bEBhY2N1cmF0ZS10aS5jb20="; it's not an email address.

How can I fix this problem?

Hi GibertQ, Thank you for your suggestions.

I looked everywhere, and I watched many youtube videos and read the documentation. none of them have any solution related to this. They can use this "User Email" dynamic field just fine, but I cannot get the email address. 

 

I suspect that it might be some settings or permissions that I need to change, but i don't know what is it.

 

 

Hi, @Jsomkul 

I'm afraid that getting the flow trigger's email address is not feasible at this time.

Hi @Jsomkul 

 

I would make sure as you said that the email address is in the right format so that it can be successfully sent.
