Dear Developer,

I am an assistant that do not have deep developer knowledge.

I've been setting up the flow to automate email to be sent to candidate once interview schedules are planned. It may involve few interviews on the same day and I wish to include all the details as confirmation:

1) schedules
2) our office address
3) JD
4) the interviewers' biographies

This is to enhance the candidates experience and the email has our company logo too. The flow worked well yesterday early morning.. but when I added more features, the email lost all the formatting with our fonts and table frames... everything just text and even worse with funny symbols while I kept on testing.

I have attached the email template text file (also the outlook file) and the exported flow for your reference. I have an excel file to have all the inputs (but not shared here). Can you tell what went wrong?

Thanks a lot in advance for your insights!

Hi @WC-09080204-0,

The Outlook connector can be unforgiving to complex styles. Do you have the original code that worked - if so I suggest you start with that and add small bits at a time until you find what broke it. I am pasting your HTML below for ease of reference.
