In one of my project requirements, I have to send some recursive email notifications to the account owner. I have chosen Scheduled flow to do this operation, Everything was fine till I created the email. Now, I wonder how to send this email. In traditional Dynamics workflow, we have a "send email" option but there is no such option I can see in flows. What to do now?😓 No worries, After some research, I found "Perform a Bound Action" by which we can send an email. In "Perform a bound action", We have to choose the table as "Email messages", Action name "Send Email" and just mention created email message id in Row Id. Finally, My flow looked like this  That's all, Now the email will be sent from Dataverse. Please subscribe blog for regular updates. Cheers, Rocker

There are some situations when we retrieve only a single row. To retrieve an entity record from Dataverse we generally use "List Rows" feature and this always returns an entity collection. Hence we always need to go in "for each" loop. As shown in the below example, I am creating an email on the creation of an account entity record in Dataverse. I have retrieved a queue to set it in "from" activity party of the email. I know that there is only one queue record but I am helpless if I directly select "Dynamic content", It automatically creates a "for each" loop. See in below screenshots: If I go for expression rather than "Dynamic content" then I can avoid "for each" loop, Please refer below screenshot: Below line, I have written in expression: outputs('List_rows_Queue')?['body/value'][0].queueid Here "List_rows_Queue" is the above step, [0] is the first row and "queueid" is a field
