https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Formatting-while-sending-emails/m-p/66322#M18927 The forum messed up the formatting a bit there, but I hope you get the general idea! I've attached a snippet of a calculation to show you how we would build up and email body, with a bit of html thrown in.

Is there a way the text can be sent as html enabled and also are there any templates available in blueprism portal? I was able to see the process templates for POP3/EMAIL but not for MAPIEx. Any guidance please?

I am actually using the same MAPIEx but the problem I have is when I am updating the message field with html blocks , it is saying that expression should be inside the quotes which is obvious as the message field is defined as text. Any idea how to put the html blocks in the text field? I have gone through the MAPIEx user Guide but that is not something clearly called out in that guide. Any help?  Wed, 24 Jan 2018 13:05:00 GMT https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Formatting-while-sending-emails/m-p/66319#M18924 Sri_Krishna_Cha 2018-01-24T13:05:00Z https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Formatting-while-sending-emails/m-p/66320#M18925 If the input data type is Text, then the expression you supply should also be Text. Check your HTML is a valid expression - you may need to escape quotes within your HTML, ""something """"like this Wed, 24 Jan 2018 16:11:00 GMT https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Formatting-while-sending-emails/m-p/66320#M18925 John__Carter 2018-01-24T16:11:00Z https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Formatting-while-sending-emails/m-p/66321#M18926 As John mentioned, you would have to place the whole HTML block within a text data item, or escape it with "" "".
