Azure Logic apps - output array in email body - azure-logic-apps

I have trouble using my array variable in my V2 email in Logic apps. I would like to output my array in the email body. For example if my array is ["1","2",3"]. Im want each value on its own row.
1
2
3
I have 2 issues, outputting my array in the email body(only strings showing in the dynamic menu) and making each value on a row.

After reproducing from my end, I could able to achieve your requirement by replacing "," with "< br>< br>" while sending the email using Send an email (V2) action. Below is the expression that worked for me.
replace(string(variables('SampleArray')),',','<br><br>')
Here is the flow of my Logic App
Result in my Inbox:
To reproduce the same, you can use below codeview in your logicapp

get emails for last x number of hours in logic app

I am using "get emails v3" action in "outlook.com" for logic apps. I want to search emails based on subject filters in todays date only. I want following search criteria where I want emails between two times.
((receivedDateTime:#{utcNow()})) BETWEEN (receivedDateTime:#{addToTime(utcNow(), 1, 'Day')})
Is there any way to do that?
After reproducing it was clear that this is because of the format of receivedDateTime is not as same as the format of utcNow(). To achieve your requirement, you need to compare the dates in same format using condition. Below is how I to achieve your requirement using condition action.
Left side Condition
formatDateTime(items('For_each_2')?['receivedDateTime'],'dd/MM/yyyy')
Right side Condition
formatDateTime(addDays(utcNow(), -1), 'dd/MM/yyyy')
Here is the complete flow of my logic app

}
}
}
}
}
If I've understood you correctly then this is the sort approach you need to take.
There's an additional parameter to that connector called Search Query.
In there, you can put an expression that looks like the following ...
received>#{formatDateTime(addDays(utcNow(), -1), 'MM/dd/yyyy')}
You're close, if you look at the doco though, the name of the field is different to what comes back in the response.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/graph/search-query-parameter
You may just need to play around with the formula to give you exactly what you want given the response is all in UTC. I think -1 day is the easiest but it may not be perfect for you.

Queue Name is not binding to azure logic app after deployment

I am trying to deploy the Azure logic app to two environments ie. dev and prod.
I am using a single json file for the logic app and for the environments I have different parameter files. The Azure pipeline picks the parameter file as per the environment. All the parameters defined in the parameters files get bound during deployment, but I'm having issues with the queue name.
This is how I am defining parameters in the parameters files:
"parameters": {
"logicAppName": {
"value": "Test-App-dev"
},
"QueueName": { "value": "testdev" }
}
This is how it is used in path variable in logic app json file:
But after deployment, the queue name is not reflecting on the Azure portal. This is how it looks like in the Azure portal:
After reproducing from our end, we found that this is due to an invalid template. Here is how we could able to pull off the required value.
Created the below parameter
"parameters": {
........
,
"QueueName": {
"defaultValue": "testdev",
"type": "String"
}
}
Now you need to add the same in the template's parameter
"parameters": {
"$connections": {
"value": {
"servicebus_1": {
"connectionId": "[parameters('connections_servicebus_1_externalid')]",
"connectionName": "servicebus-1",
"id": "***"
}
}
},
"QueueNamedev": {
"value": "[parameters('QueueName')]"
}
}
Declare the same in your definition's parameter
"parameters": {
"$connections": {
"defaultValue": {},
"type": "Object"
},
"$QueueNamedev": {
"defaultValue": {},
"type": "String"
}
}
RESULT:
Finally, we could able to read its value as 'testdev'. You can check from parameters that the value of QueueNamedev is read as testdev.
Below is the template of my logic app

Convert CSV file as array in logic apps

I want to read CSV file as array in logic apps. I didn't find any documents related to it. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thank you!
Based on your question here are few arounds that we can try below either way for 2 different outputs.
READ EACH OBJECT CSV FILE AS ARRAY OBJECT:
We can use split and add the output of the compose connector into Array by adding 'Initialise Variable' Connector and for converting each word into array variable we need to add for each connector inside another for each connector to iterate the items inside the CSV file then with a split variable inside the inner for each connector having split(item(),',') expression.
READ EACH ROW IN CSV FILE AS AN ARRAY:
We can use Plumsail's Parse CSV connector in order to convert each CSV row as an array considering headers in the CSV file.
Here are the screenshots for your reference
Expression in compose connector
split(body('Get_blob_content_(V2)'),'\n')
Expression in For each 2 connector
split(item(),',')
Note: Make sure you go to your code view and change the expression in your split from
split(body('Get_blob_content_(V2)'),'\\n') to split(body('Get_blob_content_(V2)'),'\n') as when we are writing the expression for this it first takes '\n' as string and adds another "" to the expression.

How to display array in Slack Webhook of Azure Logic Apps?

I have LogicApps. It receives property ListOfNames array in HTTP request.
I have difficulty to display correctly in Slack webhook. How to format body?
Current message displayed in Slack:
ListOfNames:
["Name1 \n","Name2\n","Name3\n"]
Target message in slack:
ListOfNames:
Name1
Name2
Name3
I tried Split:
Code: No errors, but don't array items listed correctly in message:

}
You can add a compose connector before the webhook connector and use split functionality which gives the right format and then add the output of the compose connector to your webhook connector.
Here is a screenshot for your reference:
Note: Make sure you modify the expression in your split from compose connector as split(triggerBody()?['ListOfFiles'],'\n') to split(triggerBody()?['ListOfFiles'],'\n') because when we write the expression for this, it first takes '\n' as a string and then adds another ''.
Below is the split expression in compose connector:
split(triggerBody()?['ListOfFiles'],'
')
Updated Answer
As we are retrieving an array and passing it to the body of text it is adding the extra characters to it. We have created a new Logic App and added each item that we are retrieving to a variable and finally added that variable to the Webhook body.
Here is the screenshot of the logic app

How to add Blob storage connection in logic app template file

I want to deploy the logic app to the portal using the Azure cloud shell, I have modified the all the files , and able to deploy the logic apps successfully. But when I see the changes in the portal all the actions are showing but the blob storage part it is showing like invalid connection.
Please help us how to provide the connections and all related to the blob storage in the logic app template file.
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Manikanta P.
Let's assume i already have a container called azureBlobContainer under MyStorageAccount Using the below template you should be able to deploy a LogicApp with a blob connection created.
